    Exclamation Welcome to the world Koda!!!

    Well, as usual I'm the last to know {sigh}....but I'm happy to announce that almost exactly 24 hrs ago (1:30 am to be exact) my grandson Koda entered this world weighing in at 7lbs. 9oz! I hear that mother & the wee bairn are doing well.

    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!

    They already have a name chosen: Koda (Sioux for friend).

    I'm still trying to get used to the idea that I'm to be a grandpa at the age of 47 (!?!)

    Congratulations on being a Grandad

    The good thing about being a grandfather, (or uncle in my case) is that you get to have all the fun then give them back at the end

    Cheers, Terry!

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

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