[Northkeep] Demo Apologies and Good News

[Melissa VonAschen]

First off I wanted to say I am sorry I did not make it all the way to the
demo yesterday.  I was really excited when I heard both of my classes were
cancelled and I would be able to attend afterall, however, what kept me away
was even more exciting, which brings me to the good news.

I am a new big sister (for the 6th time)!  My step-mom and dad had their
second baby yesterday, in what was a very successful, planned-at-home
delivery with a midwife.

The baby's name is Joshua (still waiting on the middle name) and he weighed
8 lbs, 8 oz and 20 3/4 in. long.

So yeah, how's that for an excuse to miss a demo?  :)
