I thank you for your company to the show tonight, though I know you are not what we'd call a fan. Seeing the PHC with you each April has been a wonderful birthday tradition. I cannot wait to welcome our little one this coming December. The Baby's conception was the perfect birthday gift, it's arrival the perfect Christmas gift. As always, with love.
