So the downside to spending the majority of the year away from home, is missing out on everything. Births, marriages, birthdays and all the milestones in life that your family and friends get to celebrate without you. Well I finally got to meet little Ella for the first time today, and isn't she a beauty. We thought she might end up sharing my birthday but she arrived 2 days later, which is close enough for me.

Few more back-blips starting here.
