On the
second day of August, in the year of our Lord 2018, the Sume family experienced
the upside of the Circle of Life.
John Shane
Sume, six pounds, two whole ounces, made his way
from his namesake’s arms to ours.
I have, on
my phone, approximately 487 baby pictures, and if I happen to run into anybody
I even think looks vaguely familiar, I’m happy to prove it.
Little John-John—as
I like to call him—is a pretty typical newborn. Meaning he’s very
beautiful--with all those tiny fingers and toes—and clearly a genius.
Seriously, the boy has
benevolent-Rocket-Scientist-with-a-great-sense-of-humor-and-a-poet’s-soul
written all over him. True, I had to write kind of small, because at 18.5”
there wasn’t a lot of surface area to work with. But, I managed to squeeze it
all in.
Anyway—that’s
what’s new in the Sume Garden of Life, a brand-new, bouncing baby boy. We are
counting our blessings.
