Birth Announcement
Well I just wanted to let everyone know that I am now a first time father. My wife gave birth to our first child, a boy, who was 3.85 kg (8 lbs 5 oz), 51 cm (20") long on February 13, 2007 at 11:26AM. He is perfectly healthy so far as we know. We've decided to give him a good Irish name, so he is Fionn Patrick O'Neil. The name Fionn is from the Irish folk hero Fionn mac Cumhaill (North American pronunciation is Finn McCool,) who was a great Irish leader who implemented a code of honour among the elite soldiers he commanded, the Fianna. He challenged them to become champions of the people, make themselves models of chivalry and justice that other could aspire too. It seems to be a hopeful name of the great things he may someday accomplish. So here is a cheers to being a father and this new chapter in my life! Thank you, everyone, for reading this site and I intend to keep on writing, but if some of my posts are slightly incoherent, it maybe due to lack of sleep.
