Hey folks...
Sorry I've been away from the forums lately. I have really had my hands full, both with work and with helping a few fellow laserists get ready for the 4th of July. But the event that has consumed most of my time over the past week is the arrival of my second grandchild!
I present: Adalyn Marie Burns! (With her Grandfather)
This is the first child for my younger son, Mike. Those of you who were at SELEM last year remember that my older son Daniel and his wife had their first child in the middle of SELEM. That was granddaughter #1. This is granddaughter #2! (And I gotta tell you - all this "grand" talk is making me feel really old!)
Adalyn was born on June 21st. She's very healthy. 6 lbs, 11oz, and 19 inches. Mom is doing fine as well. We spent a lot of time with mom and baby those first two days, and my wife has been over there pretty much every day since the birth.
So now you know what's been keeping me busy! But things should settle down to something resembling a normal life for me soon.
First order of business is to update the SELEM thread with all the new people who have signed up! Then I'll start working on backlogged messages.
Adam
