abc wednesday — F is for "fatherhood"

Meet newborn Lukas (born 1/12/11—a day late?), and his father, Tobias.  
Tobi is married to one of my daughter Lila's best friends (Lila took this picture).  
We were all thrilled when Luke arrived—finally, a bit tardy and by C-section—
but (little) mom Amanda and (big, 9 lbs. plus) son are both thriving.

    Awww....touching photo. My daughter-in-law is due end of July, so I will have some sort of similar photo then!

    This baby was 9 pounds and looks tiny to me; gee, when I think mine were just six, they must have been miniatures! :)

    yeah, you'll be amazed how fast he'll grow, though you know it intellectually.
