This sweet little guy was born this week to a lovely friend and colleague.

The daily experience of watching a little one develop from early stages of morning sickness to first kicks to “my back is killing me” to “okay, enough of this” to “hello world!” has been nothing short of miraculous. By the time “hello world” happened, it felt like we’d known this baby boy forever. We were just waiting to be formally introduced.

Welcome, little buddy. It’s so nice to finally meet you.
