Finley Cole (as in Nicole) arrived 2weeks early and is lovely beyond words. Her mommies and little brother are smitten.
As am I.
Most likely her awesomeness will surpass that of my own. As it should be for one's namesake.
While it would seem that there are those who needlessly struggle with defining a family in stringent terms as if it is only a Census box to be checked or a recipe to be strictly followed. All I have to say is, you'll know one when you see it.
I think the same thing whenever I watch my kids play with what passes for cousins on my in-laws side - my husband's fifty-year-old uncle's five-year-old son and my husband's aunt's second husband's twenty-two-year-old son's four-year-old. Yeah, it's torturous explaining the breakdown, but when they're together they're just family. And a namesake - insanely cool.
