Happy Birth Day Cash!
He's finally here! Today, December 28th at 6:55pm, Cash was born. He weighed 8 lbs 3 ounces and was 21 inches tall. It was a long, hard labor that started when Carrie had her water broken at 10:30. Carrie was such a trooper... and she is doing very well!
Baby Cash is super healthy and unbelievably cute.
More tomorrow.

A Note From Dad
Dear Cash,
You are still two and a half weeks away from being born; that is, if you come on your due date, December 23rd, 2008. Before you are born, I want to write you a note about life. So here goes:
First off, know that Mom and Dad will always love you; there is nothing you can do that will ever change that.
Love God with all your heart, mind, and soul; having a relationship with the creator is unbelievable.
Always be kind to others; even if they aren't kind to you.
Enjoy life; have fun, laugh, and be adventurous.
Travel as much as you can; seeing the world helps shape your perspective.
Be close with your grandparents; they are wonderful and wise, and they love you without end.
Go outside often; enjoy the beautiful outdoors.
Take care of the environment; God only gave us one earth, do what you can to ensure your kids can enjoy it too.
Don't be afraid to be creative; art enriches the world.
Be passionate; have convictions and stick to them, no matter what anybody else says.
Take care of the less fortunate; loving and caring for them will change you for the better.
Listen to people's stories; they can teach you a lot.
Value education; it will take you far in life.
Try new things; variety is the spice of life.
Be quick to forgive; you'll be less burdened.
Be a gentleman; open the door for ladies.
Have a gentle spirit; be slow to anger.
And when in doubt, always be on the side of compassion and love.
Your mother and I love you more than you'll every know,
Dad
