Wesley, I hope they're born on my son's birthday in February -- the 24th. He's one of the best human beans on the planet. And one of my dearest friends in this lifetime. I agree with the instructions above about taking care of our 'guests' as though they come from someplace different from ours where the customs aren't the same. That level of respect for the Being your child is is the beginning of a life-long love affair.

Read "Real Boys," when you're staying up late in the rocking chair. It isn't happy news, but it fairly adequately dissects what's going on in our culture right now to mess boys up so much and make so many of them so sad. You won't do this, of course, but you may need the information.

And then, just be yourself. Be the person you want to find in them. Works every time.

Blessings on you all, ww
