Happy belated Birthday Antonio (the arrival)

actually, i can't be certain that this is his true name, but it is true that Amber and Anthony are officially parents.

This morning, while i was shuffling out into the living room in my towel, carol was in the kitchen preparing adolfo's lunch for the day and some coffee for our ride into work. I was looking out the back door looking for evidence of rain. Carol let out a gasp and tears welled up in her eyes.

"He was born on my birthday! Antonio is here."

"amber?..."

"yeah, at 7:35"

"amber had her baby?"

"yeah. i'm gonna cry..."

and she just smiled into her phone. and i wished that somehow i was able to send carol off to new york, just to be there. to see little antonio into the world.
