The only reason I haven't called you tonight is because I know you have to devote every minute to the care and nurturing of the new addition. It was such an effort to restrain myself because I couldn't be more excited, unless he was coming to my house. You are going to have so much fun pampering this little boy and giving him all the love that he has missed out on. I hope everyone will have a good night's sleep. I putting bets on his wanting to sleep under the covers like Tucker does.

Welcome Ripley. You have a whole extended family waiting to hear every detail about you and your new life.
