My brother sent me this photo to let me know that I was going to be an uncle for the ninth time and we could not be more thrilled. I have placed my order for a neice despite Marie’s instinct that it is a boy. On the home front, we took the first steps to add another member to our family as well. After work, I joined Jeanine and the kids at a local adoption center (for dogs). There was near agreement, but not family consensus so we decided to return next week when 70 new puppies will arrive.
