  4. Thanks to all of you! I am still beaming! I'm sure I've told this story before on here, but where, I have no idea. But, he is my miracle child. He was born with a diaphragmatic hernia and had surgery when he was just two hours old. They had the helicopter ready to take him from Peoria to Chicago to put him on a heart/lung machine right after, but, thankfully, he pulled through with flying colors.

    I spent hours, days, weeks in the neonatal unit with him. When they allowed me to bring him home, I was petrified still.

    I had played classical music for my daughter when I was pregnant and changed it up, playing rock and roll for this child. There must be something to that because she played the violin for years and he now plays the guitar. Chemistry was the farthest thing from my mind.

  5. Hey, he's a lefty! Congratulations ... to both of you. Where is he going to grad school? Has he applied of assistantships/fellowships? There are usually a ton of those for the sciences.

  10. This was the most amazing video I've seen. It has everything from Mutant Ninja Turtles and Supersoakers to beer on the table and tuxedos. And my all time favorite Lynerd Skynerd Song.
    I was in tears for most of it. But you done great. Thanks for sharing this.
    Loved it,
    Kurt

  12. Big congrats. I loved the photo montage. It probably feels like he grew up that fast, too.
