Smoke a Bowl for Me Today

[TheDesertPiper]

I'm not really too sure if this is the right place to post this, but I wanted to share this somewhere. Last night my first child was born. She was early and there was a bit an unforeseen situation that required her to come out sooner rather than later. Both her and my wife are doing well and are still getting taken care of at the hospital. The whole situation was an absolute rollercoaster. I cried more last night then I have probably cried in the last 15 years of my life combined. I didn't even have to do any the hard work and I am absolutely drained. Had to come home alone though and take care of some things here. About to head back to the hospital to spend some time with my wife and new baby girl. Just that I would ask that you smoke a bowl for me today, and possibly the rest of the week. I don't think I am gonna have the time to smoke one myself. Thanks.

Congrats on the new addition and glad to hear they are well. Hope you all get to come home together soon.

My first (also a girl) turns two on May 1. I still remember the hospital experience vividly. It's a wild ride. Ours also came early due to unexpected events. It is a crazy combination of scary, amazing, and incredibly tired.

Congratulations and best of luck with your new baby! As I'm sure everyone has already told you, your life will be forever changed. Mostly for the better, haha.

Congrats on the birth of your first child. For some reason I ended up with 4. We really sucked at Russian roulette.

Kind regards

Congratulations! Life, as you know it, is about to change dramatically (for the best). Glad to hear mom and baby are doing well!

I’ll go load one up in y’all’s honor right now!

Enjoy your bliss.

Congratulations to you and your wife on your baby daughter, and welcome to your daughter. It sounds like you went through an emotional wringer, but it is wonderful that you three made it through and have many happy experiences together ahead of you. I'll pick out a great big pipe and savor a bowl thinking how much better things will be for you three. Be well.

Congratulations! Definitely will smoke a bowl to your family!

Bowl of Billy Budd Blonde for ya! Even has some cigar in it, so it's a proper choice for a new addition!

 

[greeneyes]

Congratulations. Yes went through this when it as my turn. Even if you could slip away there is no smoking anywhere on the campus. When you finally return home that first pipe will be glorious. Then you can begin teaching them about Dunhill patent era pipes after about four years.

new baby girl.

Congratulations! All the old sayings are true. Your old life is gone; your new life has just begun. It’s not the same life, it’s much harder and much more worthwhile.

I don't think I am gonna have the time to smoke one myself.

Now the fun of choosing a name, if you haven't. I start with the prettiest name among her grandmas and great grandmas and go from there, or maybe end up there. You've got the middle name to work with as well, but I'd listen to the flow of the three names together. Probably better if they are not all many syllables. You want rhythm and poetry if possible. The value of a middle name is that the child can use that if she doesn't favor the given first name. But give it a few days; you've been through the mill.

Congratulations! There's goes the PAD/TAD budget!

They are great until they start to smell...but eventually they figure out how to wipe their butts and become great little humans again!!

Enjoy this time, it's worth missing a few bowls for sure to spend time with family!

Congratulations to you and wife.

 

[crawdad]

So glad your wife and child are well. I have vivid memories of my children’s births so I that in kinship with you. I’ll smoke a special bowl tonight for this auspicious occasion.
