Salem Dawn was born on or about 8 September 2005.  She's now a beatiful litlle 11 pounder with blue-green eyes and strawberry-blond hair.  The world is a little bit better place.  Eric didn't know until just a few days ago.  He's very excited, and I'm very happy for him.  I'll spare you the details here.  I hope to get to see Salem tomorrow and hope to have pics soon.  I'm still in shock, too.  I feel like Eric has made me a grandpa all over again!

A long time ago I told Eric I wanted to see a pup out of him before I died.  Little did we know that was in-process when I told him that.  Now I guess I don't have an excuse.  Eric emailed tonight and told me if I talk any more about dieing that he was gonna stick me in a home!  lol  I like that little brat.  Now I have to tell Lost Boy I want to see a pup out of him before I go!  Maybe I'll tell Eric I want to see a son out of him.  I'll figure some way for an extended stay!

I hope you'll all join me in congratulating Eric.  I know he's gonna be a great father.  My extended family continues to grow!
