Congratulations!
I just stopped by to let you know how much I missed the Sunday evening edition of THOR, and saw this picture.
What a lovely baby!
But really, a baby is no excuse to take my Sunday entertainment away! What kind of priorities do you have? ;-)
God bless. Keep him away from the masks of his ancestors, lest he become consumed with ambition!
Posted by: David Strom | May 27, 2012 at 09:08 PM
Congratulations! Maybe you should have called him Cesar :) God bless you!
