#1: Grand God Father Author: gelandangan, Location: Sydney AustraliaPosted: Thu Apr 04, 2019 3:07 pm ---- My god son's wife has just delivered a baby boy.
so now I am a grand god father
Ok, it was an emergency procedure a cesarian for the mom due to some complication. The baby boy is 3 months premature with only 26 weeks gestation and right now he is only 500 grams, but he is a definite fighter.
We would have to look after him for a while yet.
Libby (the mum) is doing fine and my god son who is a Captain in ADF is ecstatic.
Nevertheless I wet the baby head with a good bottle of bourbon last night
Today I will make a special knife for the boy .. yeah..

A possible movie title right there.
Congratulations, I hope bub continues to remain healthy and thrives and mum recovers quicky. A bub in hospital for 3 months is a big strain on the parents, dont let them drive themselves in exhaustion.
If you have a wedding in the near future youll fulfil the family trifecta.
