Excerpt of The Departure by Michael Parker

  HOME

Friday, November 12, 2004

J delivered our new son Merrick last night at 11:34 PM.  It was the easiest delivery of the three kids, if you can equate any delivery as being easy.  Merrick was 8 lbs. 8 ounces, 21 inches long, blonde hair, blue eyes. He was born under the number 11-- eleventh month, eleventh day, and in the eleventh hour.  (Doc and I teased J about pushing the baby out in time to meet the 11:11 PM mark but she would not entertain the idea of doing any additional pushing. Oh well.)

If anyone out there is a numeroligist or knows the science behind the characteristics of birth-order, I'd love to hear your thoughts. 

But most importantly, dear J is doing well. And handsome little Merrick is doing well too.
