Born 20th March at 2.23pm weighing 7lb 6. Mum and baby both doing well.
the most surreal, best, scary moment is when your child first appears in all their little glory, before you realise that nothing prepares you for being a parent ... a really special moment was a little while later as someone prayed for the gift of kirsten that has been given to new mum and dad and (hopefully) to so many others ...
Congratulations - a good likeness Andy! Every Blessing
