Oh, baby!!

Just found out that one of my very young oldest friends is having a baby. How cool is that? No matter how many people have babies, when you find out one of your friends is having one it suddenly becomes the greatest thing in the world.

Okay, I'll admit some of it is self-serving. As long as other people are willing to propagate the species, well . . . less work for me.

But even so. There is an element that is just pure joy for someone else. When you know that a kid is going to be born to somebody who's at the right place and the right time, that's just a good thing. Lucky munchkin. Lucky parents.

Babies. What a terrific concept.
