The little angel arrived complete with her own halo. Mom had a bit of trouble during the delivery and the doctors needed to use a vacuum device to help Jocelyn proceed through the birth canal, and the device left a little ring on the crown of her head. The halo is fitting given the Christmas season. :)
I was surprised at how emotional I was when she emerged. Obviously the anticipation had been building for weeks, and I had been excited to become a father, but when I first saw her I just couldn't hold back the tears of happiness. Instantly, she became my inspiration. I want her to be as proud of me as I am of her, so right then and there I vowed to do everything I could to make that happen. It was a powerful and transformative experience.
