A New Birth...A New Blessing!

Gavin Paul Sharp was born December 23rd just before 3:00pm. He weighed in at 7 lbs. 13 ozs. And was 18 and 3/4ths inches tall. He looks a lot like his dad when his dad was born so many years before. He outweighed his dad by only 2 ozs. I am sure that Tammy will post all the details. She went into the hospital about 7:00 AM and before 3:00PM the magic of birth happened. And I am sure to Tammy's relief things went faster and without a hitch. Both mom and baby are in perfect condition.  Shortly after he was born, his Papa Craig, Aunt Valerie, and Uncle Michael showed up at the hospital to welcome him. I was already there. I had brought William a late lunch and stayed for a while. Then went into the waiting room which seemed to be only a short time before Gavin was born. What a miracle and in the season of miracles too! Congratulations to William, Tammy, Madison, and Hailey...as well as to Tammy's wonderful family in Portland!
