Congratulations .

Fatherhood is the best feeling out - unconditional love from your daughter (or son) is just such a humbling experience . Obviously I haven't got to the "Dad can I borrow the car" or "Dad, this is my boyfriend" stage yet .

Congratulations mate!

Glad to hear mother and son are doing well!

He looks a big lad!

You finally left your PC and went to the hospital then?

Well done mate!
