Welcome to the world, Samuel Patrick Niel Keely. Real quick about his name, I know it seems long, but it was an accident LOL. Melissa and I decided on Samuel Neil Keely but I had second thoughts and I wanted to make his name stronger. Melissa and I threw out names like Maxwell Niel Keely and Alexander Niel Keely. I finally said that we should add a middle name (Samuel Patrick Niel Keely) in order to keep Samuel but make it stronger. Melissa was quick to say....NO. She hated the idea and said that there was no reason to add a middle name. Melissa and I couldn't compromise and Melissa said we should wait till we see the baby, and we would know the name then.
Low and behold we are in the birthing room, Melissa is pushing out the baby, HE'S BORN, Melissa holds him and over come with emotion she shouts, SAMUEL PATRICK NIEL KEELY, I LOVE YOU. Well, way to trap us in to that one Melissa LOL. Everyone herd it, her mother, her father, her aunts, her cousin, her friends, the midwife and finally, the nurses.
I must say that Samuel is a beautifully baby who looks just like his brother. He is feeding and sleeping just fine.
For the record I wasn't there for our first child being born. So Melissa would talk about it a lot and I would nod and hmm and haaa about her experience. Seeing it in person is something totally different. I feel I should probably apologise to all mothers everywhere because Melissa showed a strength that I have never seen in her before and I feel really grateful that she would allow me to see this incredible experience. I have said this to a lot of my friends because it fits soo well, If you only ever do one thing in your lifetime don't go skydiving, don't see the great pyramids, don't spend you life looking for enlightenment, go and see your child be born.
