Amusing and Poignant Baby Moment

[tehuti]

Yesterday morning (dear Gods, was it only yesterday!?), as we were packing up, getting ready to head to the hospital, I took care of a final little detail that I'd like to share with you guys in it's entirety.

Earlier this week, our family decided to attend this year's Relaxacon. It's a weekend getaway on Cape Cod for the staff, volunteers, friends and family of Arisia. We got a room, and I pre-registered the four of us. Shortly before we left the house, I got confirmation of our registrations.

Last night, once things had calmed down a bit, I started wading through happy emails and Facebook messages of congratulations. One email was different. It was a request from the con for the names of the other three people I'd pre-registered. I sent the following reply, at about 9:30pm:

---------
Greetings,

The other three names are:

Aimee Bouchard
Michelle Driscoll
Ian Rose

Also, we'll need a badge for Connor Bouchard, who will be attending
his first con. He was born about four hours ago. :-)

Micah

Why yes, I was tearing up writing it. And no, this poor child NEVER had a chance to avoid his fate. :-)
