On April 28th my wife gave birth to our first child, a beautiful baby girl. All is well and we’re extremely happy.
Needless to say, though, blogging is likely to be sporadic at best for the foreseeable future. Not just because of time constraints and lack of sleep leading to fuzzy thinking, but also because I suddenly find myself with little interest in thinking about the sorts of things I typically write about here or in following the blogospheric contretemps of the moment. Imagine that!
Hopefully, though, things we’ll pick up here again once we’ve settled into a routine. But who knows? Thanks, as ever, to all you readers for stopping by.
A Thinking Reed 
Congratulations!!!
Such a small person does the strangest, and best, things to your life, doesn’t she? Many congratulations!
Many congratulations to you both, Lee! I’m excited and happy for you. I hope I can meeting the family someday!
Congratulations! My prayers are with your family. What a joy and blessing!
I had an inkling that was what was up, given the date. Babies can so rudely interrupt perfectly good property-rights discussions!
Seriously though, congratulations to you and Abby. If you need any help with anything, please let me know. Might I ask what her name is?
Holy moly. I had no idea. Congratulations!
What great news! It sounds like everything went well, no?
Blessings on you and your family.
Sleep is overrated. đ
Congratulations to you and your wife, Lee!! Such a wonderful, special time!
Blessings and congratulations!
Just where are your priorities, man? Don’t you realize that there are people on the Internet who are wrong?
All kidding aside, congratulations on a wonderful blessing!!
Congratulations!
Congratulations on the new baby!
Congratulations đ
Congratulations, Lee!
Though I do hope that when the little one spends more predictable time asleep, this becomes interesting for you again.
Congratulations!
Hope everyone is still fine and you both are taking parenthood well.
Thanks everyone for the good wishes! We’re all doing great–well, as well as can be expected when you’re seriously sleep-deprived. đ
