July 5, 2011 - Lale and I go to the hospital to have the baby. I had just arrived the night before with Shattuck from Alexandra Adams' wedding at Pawley's Island. After a long night at the wedding, I had to take Shattuck through the airport in Charleston - stop over in Washington, DC - and then to Memphis. If we had taken the more direct flight through Atlanta, I may not have made it.... all of the flights had been canceled.
I spent the morning looking up family names for a boy.

Mary Kirk Adams' first photo. The doctor wasn't paying attention when she was born and told me she was a boy... for a split second my mind told me I had two sons... then he said... a 1/2 second later... 'excuse me... I meant girl...'
Shattuck meets his little sister for the first time... he doesn't know what to think...
