Jeff, Michelle & Serif - I can't tell you how happy I am for all 3 of you. Your "little man" is an absolute cutie! It's so hard to believe he's actually here...just hang on tight cuz the years go way too fast. So enjoy these precious days ahead - the joy he'll bring both of you is going to be amazing & unbelievable.

I wish we could all be there, but I'm sure we'll see lots and lots of photos...RIGHT?!?

Hope to see you at Christmas.

Love you all...Kisha, Brent, Ash & Britt
