I hope it's a girl so that now you'll be TWICE as confused. I am the youngest of 3 boys. My oldest brother had 4 boys. My middle brother is not married and has no children. My mother has wanted a girl for years. She asked us to have a girl when Mrs. WRC and I got married 4 years ago. Having a girl would be weird. There are VERY FEW girls in the WRC-family-tree. I've never been around girl children. It'd be like having a space alien. Ack!  |

You wouldn't REALLY name her Walburga, would you? Congrats, anyway. |

People talk vaguely about the innocence of a little child, but they take mighty good care not to let it out of their sight for twenty minutes.-Saki.
"Meanwhile, Fate was quietly slipping lead into the boxing glove. "
— P.G. Wodehouse
The Modernist's Prayer by R.A. Knox
O God, forasmuch as without Thee
We are not enabled to doubt Thee,
Help us all by Thy Grace
To convince the whole race
It knows nothing whatever about Thee.

You wouldn't REALLY name her Walburga, would you? It's a working title. We were using the term "Junior" for a while, but it doesn't seem to fit after this morning. |

Girls are the best. No one loves Papa like his little girl! I love having a girl-- a lot of friends and family said, "I bet you want(ed) a boy, and I tell 'em "Hell no! I want what we got"
Just be glad she's healthy! She'll be giving you trouble in no time.

"It is questionable whether the proper functions of Catholics is to hunt down, "expose" and condemn Catholics they suspect of undue rigidity, disobedience or "material schism"; especially while giving support to a Vatican ecumenical campaign which addresses heretics and actual Schismatics as "separated brethren", Jews as "people of the covenant" and Muslims as "people of God". This is part of the overall contradiction (or inconsistency) that permeates the "conservative" mentality. Cloaked in a pledged loyalty to all things "whatsoever" emanating from the Holy See, many "conservatives" will go beyond the measures taken by the Church leaders, or even disagree with their actual positions. The Hawaii "excommunications" were an obvious example but others can be seen. "Conservatives" denounce as "Schismatic" all those who set foot in SSPX chapels while the Vatican embraces the Schismatics in China. "Conservatives" deny any significant change at the Second Vatican Council while the Pope celebrates the enormity and impact of the changes. "Conservatives" seek the conversion of the Eastern "Orthodox" while the Vatican promises not to "proselytize" them. "Conservatives" deride American bishops while the Pope appoints and promotes the same ones." -Peter Miller "Tolerance is the last virtue of a depraved society When an immoral society has blatantly and proudly violated all the commandments, it insists upon one last virtue, tolerance for its immorality. It will not tolerate condemnation of its perversions. It creates a whole new world in which only the intolerant critic of intolerable evil is evil." - H.

Congratulations! Here's what I did when my daughter was born: Call Remington and order a shotgun, then call the convent and make a reservation! ;)  |

"Tenthly, one should pour tea into the cup first. This is one of the most controversial points of all; indeed in every family in Britain there are probably two schools of thought on the subject. The milk-first school can bring forward some fairly strong arguments, but I maintain that my own argument is unanswerable. This is that, by putting the tea in first and stirring as one pours, one can exactly regulate the amount of milk, whereas one is liable to put in too much milk if one does it the other way round."
George Orwell
