I had the privilege yesterday of witnessing my first child being born. Just minutes after, as I held him for the first time, the following lyric came to mind from Just Breathe:
"I'm a lucky man to count on both hands the ones I love..."

In the past 24 hours the song has managed to bring me to tears twice, helping me relive the happiest moment of my life.
Thank you Pearl Jam for being such an important part of my life. Hopefully, when I go to Bilbao to see you for the first time ever, you will play this song. I have a feeling that I will be crying then too. After almost 17 years, Indifference has been replaced as my favorite song.
Still can't believe I met Mike Mccready at the Guggenheim and got a pic with him!!!!!

    Thanks again every one. I just watched the "video log" I filmed over the past couple of days and it is definitely amazing! I am already trying to figure out what songs to put on the bed time CD I am planning on making for him. You can never start listening to Pearl Jam too soon :D
