I have created life! Isaac Mark Ranstead 330AM after 34 hours of labor (only one obscenity was said, and not directed at me!)
Congratulations!! Being a parent is a very rewarding experience, especially when you see a big smile on your child's face when they look at you with love and excitement in their eyes. Now we have a Young Whippersnapper Jr. in the Alaska ADV family! I struggled through a very long period of labor during the delivery of my first son so I can empathize with your wife. OW OW OW!!! Cheers to her for only saying one profanity.
There are many gateways in raising a child. First step, potty trained, driving, first date, off to college... but the most important, as you will learn, is getting a job with benefits. You are in for the ride of a lifetime and nothing is better.
That right there is the best corner on the whole circuit. Congrats to you and Mom and to Isaac. What an amazing and cool point in time it is to just now be born. If you boil down all the progress that's been made in the last century and realize that most of it was made in the last half... the next half ought to be absolutely outstanding. My best to you all.
Yes, just imagine... when Isaac Mark Ranstead is Legion's age BMW may have a dependable final drive... maybe.
