A New Baby

I am very excited to say that I know of three new babies being born this year and early next year. I love to hold little babies and I can not wait for their arrival. Two are from good friends and one is from my sister in law. I am very excited to have a new baby in the family. It will be a nice addition at family get together. It will also be wonderful for the kids to have another cousin.
One of the first things I think of when a new baby is born is that I wonder if they are going to buy gurkha cigars to pass around to family and friends. We do not smoke but it had been a tradition to many people for as long as I can remember. I can remember my dad doing it when my sister was born almost 16 years ago. Ken also did it when Ben was born 7 years ago. It is a nice little gift that visitors can get when they see the baby for the first time. I cant wait to see our new babies. One is actually due on my birthday. How exciting is that!
