Sorry I've been so out-of-pocket, but at 4am this morning, our daughter gave birth to a beautiful baby girl -- our first grandchild.

I'm completely exhausted and running on 1 1/2 hours sleep since 6am Thursday at the moment, but I would have never thought I'd be celebrating this -- WITH MY WIFE -- 2 1/2 years ago, when she was in the midst of her affair, I was filing for divorce, and we were barely speaking to each other.

God heals hearts, and He can still heal marriages if we will allow Him. I am triply blessed, and in awe of His goodness and grace.

My daughter is fine, but tired, sad and frustrated that she CANNOT HOLD HER LITTLE BABY GIRL yet. Due to the suction instrument they had to use to assist during the delivery, the baby had a wound on the top of her little head and quite a bit of fluid and swelling that they are still concerned about. They have her in the neo-natal ICU, but she's otherwise healthy.

I've honestly never checked it out, Jack. And (sorry, folks) I have denied most of the "Friend" requests I get from here, as I try to keep the two lives separate as I want to be able to continue to speak freely. It started when our teens didn't know we were considering divorce at one point, and then I've just chosen to keep the two mostly separate. I originally would send each Friend request a private message, asking them to not talk about DB on my wall, but I got tired of doing that after awhile.

Why do you ask?

Very similar views about FB. except there...well I'm me here. So the two cannot clash.

Was looking for discourse.
