welcome, welcome little man

dear Eli (Donovan),
it took your mama and daddy awhile to figure out your name, for a day we called you simply THE BOY.you came by way of a quick delivery; so quick that your auntie's couldn't make it in time to see you pop out.
according to the stat world you are perfectly average in every way:
7 pounds 7 ounces
20 inches long
but with your calm demeanor, perfect toes, and little ears; we know you're far from average.
your big sister can't wait for you to be big enough to play with, you're officially her PRINCE, she told me that today. she kisses your downy hair and exclaims, "he's so soft!" you politely squeak and grunt a happy reply.
welcome, welcome little one. i'm so happy to be an auntie again.

Congratulations. Your pictures are simply gorgeous. The boy (and his big sister) even more so.
