Please welcome Adia Faith Bowen. Her debut was January 31, 2006 at 12:22 a.m. She weighed in at a whopping 8 lbs and 15 oz. She was 21 1/2 inches long. She has her daddy's legs...lucky girl. She was delivered by her daddy at home with the assistance of our lovely midwife. She was welcomed by her mama and daddy and her excited older siblings. She came quickly and relatively easily, and with her eyes wide open and her arms spread, she screamed at us, "HERE I AM! ARE YOU HAPPY NOW?!!"

Faith, as we call her, is looking forward to meeting all of you soon. At the present we are planning to drive to Michigan on Saturday, March 11 and stay until the following Thursday morning. Grace has Spring Break that week and Bobby will be out of town...(singing at Chet's on the 10th and 11th, by the way).

Mary and Kristy have blogs and I think they're a nice way to see what's going in someone else's life. I was messing around trying to get y'all an announcement in the mail. Bah! This is easier and less expensive...and I can send more than one picture. Don't worry, I won't be sending you emails every time I post in my blog. If you're nosy and you want to see what someone's been up to, you put their blog address into your "favorites" and then you can click on it at your leisure.

Kris and Mary both have blogs and they're both pretty interesting. Shoot, they have a family website which is where you go first and then you can choose a blog to read. Their web address is www.kelsofamily.net
