You're a lucky man to have two such lovely ladies under your roof.
Does this mean you won't be at the release on Sunday?

What another blessing for you and your wife, Craig. She definitely has "painboater" knees and already has the bow rudder down.

The best to your family, Craig. We all missed you at Nationals, but you were gone for all the right reasons. Psycho and MJ proudly brought their new boy, Noah to his first race at the tender age of three weeks and Andy and Vanessa had their newborn girl, Aspen there as well. Its great to see the next generation comin down the pike. Give Mom all the help with Henna K that you can and enjoy the ride. We'll all help you start designing the ultimate tot playboat for Henna.
Congratulations

it take a real man to blow the balls off of them. Congrads, it only get better. Best thing that can happen to man is to have kids. I really feel sorry for those self center person who think that kids are only something to drag them down and cuts into their time.
Congrats!
