JC is born...

i just returned from visiting my friends JB and CB in the hospital, where CB is recovering from having given birth to their first child. they named their son Josiah and he was born early due to CB having high blood pressure. the baby was just over 4 lbs and i went up to see him and family for the first time today. the special needs at this point were enough to really put life in a different perspective. he's such a cool looking guy with his long hair and fair complexion, which will only get darker as he begins to maintain body temperature. i watched JB feed his new son with the smallest bottles i'd ever seen, only to have the nurse ask him to step aside so they could finish the task through a small tube. i know how much JB really wanted his son to take the entire bottle so he wouldn't have to be subject to any feeding tubes but obviously they are doing what's best for the child at this point. then again, i don't know that you ever really stop doing what's in the child's best interest.
anyway, it was quite a sight to see. i was most amazed by Josiah's hair because he's african american and he had the straightest long black hair i've seen on any baby. i kept asking JB where his baby curls were and he said it was all a matter of time before they come.
all seems to be going well with every passing day. slow progress but surely it has to ease the inevitable burden JB and CB must feel being new parents and having immediate challenges. i know their little guy will be just fine so i take peace knowing that he's in good hands no matter which way you look at it.
the rest of my was just typical corporate workforce, nothing out of the ordinary. my evening trip downtown to see the new addition was definitely the highlight of this day.

busy week continues tomorrow, my boss is on vacation and i'm in charge of the ship while he's away. hopefully we can steer into some better production the rest of this week because it's been an uphill battle thus far, however i am hopeful.
