Congrats to my new Eagle Scout!

This post isn’t about software or sawdust but about something more important.  My son was awarded the highest rank in Boy Scouts this weekend – Eagle Scout.  Only about 2 out of 100 boys that start the Scouting program achieve this and I’m very proud of him.  He’s worked very hard (with a lot of encouragement ;).  I’m sure this is going to be the first of many great accomplishments we see from him.
imageThe Boy Scouts is unquestionably the best youth program that exists.  If you would like to learn more or find a local troop to join, go to the BSA website.  I’ve been a Scout leader for many years and will be glad to also assist with any questions you may have.

Welcome Elizabeth Rose Lee

Today, I saw the third miracle of my life (the first being the birth of Ian, Jr. and the second being the birth of Zander).  We welcomed into the world Elizabeth this morning at 9:41 AM after a Cesarian delivery at the Middle Tennessee Medical Center in Murfreesboro, TN.  She came out proving that she was her momma's girl.  In other words, she came out screaming ;)  She weighs a whopping 6lb 10oz and is 19 1/4" short. 

The boys took right to her.  Jr. can't keep his hands off her and Zander offered up his pacifier.  The most gracious of gifts a big brother can offer.  It appears that I'll have plenty of help fighting the boys off in a few years.

Well, its time to go feed the little one and get a little rest.

Oh, yea, happy 33rd anniversary Pam & Kevin (Rebecca's parents)!
