Introducing Amory Cormac Duff

This little treasure, this piece of a world so fine that I walk and breath with more love inside of me than ever I thought possible, is right now sleeping peacefully next to his equally exhausted mother; a woman for whom I now have no words for praising enough. To see such tenacity and courage and fearless strength manifested with such grace in this magic experience of birth and life makes me feel a little more in awe of her every time I look at her. Andrea and Amory, my loves and family. I know it is awfully pretentious but I was out walking this afternoon running errands thinking about these two treasures and missing them already when this snippet of Romeo and Juliet came into my mind. It seems the perfect way to welcome Amory into the world:

"Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night
And pay no worship to the garish sun".

Makes me melt just thinking about him - with all the world in love with night to see this little star.

And no one can deny a new father that!
