Thank you for the kind words. However, I'll admit great disappointment that only ONE member here even bothered to post a reply?

Congrats Mag, it's good to see a little joy come to a friend.
Hows the shoulder doing?
Keep them close they grow up way too fast.
All the best from our family to yours.

IMHO, my shoulder rehab is too slow. However, my PT & Orthopod tells me my progress is normal. Bugs the crap out of me I can't lift weights like I'm use to doing.

I'm fortunate FT Sam & FT Hood are only a 2.5 hr drive apart, which makes seeing my grandson doable. My son deploys to Iraq next month but his wife & newborn are staying in there newly purchased home near FT Hood.

That's too bad your son has to leave so soon after his little guy was born- at least you and your family will be relatively close to his wife & baby...
