This one hit home as my now 12 year old daughter (Erin) had a late but rushed delivery. I barely got to see her before she was rushed off for the various treatments you describe. Erin sings quite a bit and almost always brings a tear to my eye when I think of the difficulties of her birth and how she is blessed with a beautiful voice. Your story has also allowed me to refocus on what is important in life and not to quibble over the 'small stuff.' To put it into perspective, layoffs are heading toward my group and I have been stressed a bit - however, in proper context, I have much to be thankful for. Happy Birthday Ari - Welcome to life. Thanks Eric!
