Good Tidings of Great Joy


My brother Paul and his wife Kim welcomed

Samuel David Florence

February 28, 2009 at 9:35 am.

7 pounds 2 ounces 20.5 inches

From Paul- "In East of Eden, John Steinbeck wrote 'Samuel had good looks and charm.' We couldn't agree more."



My eyes get weepy when I think of those first few days touching and holding and wondering at the miracle of life. What a happy day. And since Kim is the first to give birth of my five sisters-in-law currently pregnant, there are many more happy days to come.
