Cheers, Terry!
When the hour is more respectable to do so, I'll raise a glass to celebrate!

Congratulations! All the best to you and your family and especially that baby boy!
I have always tempered my killing with respect for the game pursued. I see the animal not only as a target but as a living creature with more freedom than I will ever have. I take that life if I can, with regret as well as joy, and with the sure knowledge that nature's ways of fang and claw or exposure and starvation are a far crueler fate than I bestow. - Fred Bear

Congratulations, Terry. You are now officially a grandpa!
Can’t wait to see pictures of you holding the little lad.
Regards,

Terry, I can't begin to congratulate you enough. As a grandfather with a grandaughter and a grandson, I can assure you that this is the best. I love it. And I cannot tell you the feeling that washed over me when I first lay eyes on my my little sweetheart.
And then came the boy! He and I are buddies.
AND . . . you get to kind of start over and do better than you did with your own kids!

Much congratulations and back-slapping (or as much as we can over the 'net)!
My own kids are still very young, 6 and 1, but I hope you enjoy your grandchild as much as my parents do theirs.
Again, great news and congrats!

Congratulations! I always like the grandparents who say that if they knew how much fun grandkids were, they would have them first.
Hopefully they will visit for Christmas and I'll get to hold the wee lad, while wearing my (soon to be made) Macdonnell of Keppoch Newsome box pleat!
And what will your grandson be wearing?
