A co-worker (OK, an employee of one of my clients) had a son this week and e-mailed a JPEG of his newborn child–what did people do before digital cameras?–so I sent him these quotes that I thought I would also share with the dozen readers of this blog:

“One of the most important things to remember about infant care is: never change diapers in mid-stream.”
Don Marquis

“All is pattern, all life, be we can’t always see the pattern when we are part of it.”
Belva Plain

“Many men can make a fortune but very few can build a family. ”
J. S. Bryan

“Life is full of miracles, but they are not always the ones that we pray for. ”
Eve Arden

“Courage is the capacity to confront what can be imagined.”
Leo Rosten
