Happy Birthday, Kiddo

On December 22 of 2002, after 16 hours of labor, my wife gave birth to a small boy of 5 lbs 14.5 ozs and 19″.  I knew he was destined to be the end of me since he began experiencing respiratory problems shortly after birth due to a heart valve not closing properly.  After nine days at UK’s NICU, he came home for the New Year.
