it’s been official since monday, but i haven’t had a chance to write it down here, that i am now an uncle. my bro had his child (cooper) on monday morning, and everything is going well. my parents just flew out tonight to go see him over in austin. i hope to be able to do the same in the next few months, at least for a three day weekend or something. those babies grow up fast.

it’s all so strange and exciting though. there’s this little kid over in austin that my brother had a hand in making, and they’re over there now, working to take care of him. i know he’s in good hands though, and he’s got a good support system with liz’s family over there to help.

and time marches on.
