My Nephew

Amanda's sister gave birth this morning to a healthy baby boy.  Amanda and I drove over to the hospital after work to see how Amanda's sister and the baby were doing.  Everyone is healthy, and the baby is strong.  Shortly after we arrived, Amanda held the baby, and then I sat with him in my arms for quite a while.

He will be the first person in the world to know me as Uncle Jake for his entire life.  He'll never know me as Jake, or even "Auntie Amanda's friend Jake."  Amanda and I aren't married yet, and we won't be for nearly a year.  Nevertheless, my nephew was born today.
