A tradition for a programmer learning a new computer programming language is to write a “Hello World” program. I cracked up when one of the first photos of our newest grand daughter Hazel showed up with a blanket over her that said “Hello World.” My daughter correctly guessed that photo would be my favorite.

At the time of a new birth, I find myself thinking of all those who came before us who made this birth a possibility. What a heritage Hazel has with the joining of multiple families.

Hello World, Miss Hazel.
