    Mother, child and dazed-but-elated father are all doing fine. They =

    It is with indescribable joy and relief that I report that little=20
    Charlotte, though having only spent 36 weeks to the day in the womb, =

    came out as perfect and as unspeakably adorable as can be.

    Anyway, there you have it.....

    Alex in NYC.....on cloud Nine.
