To our Double Delights Samuel and Michael,

Today, on your eighth day of life, it is our joy to officially welcome you as a member of our family and of the Jewish faith. A week ago you were both born and we fell in love with you immediately. You are both truly a miracle and your presence here reminds us that the circle of life continues to turn.

Your mommy and daddy are so overwhelmed and filled with joy that you have journeyed for almost nine months to join our family. You enter a family full of many... a great grandma, a grandma, a grandpa, many aunts and uncles, and nine special cousins... Each awaiting your arrival with anticipation and now relief that you've arrived healthy and beautiful. In addition, you are also joining a wonderful extended family here at BKB. It's unlikely that any two children have had so many caring people anxiously awaiting their arrival.

Family is very important in the Ross household, next to one's health there's nothing more important than being connected by family. You will learn the importance and sign)significance of being bonded together.

As you begin life so perfectly pure we wanted to compose a wish list of what we pray life may bestow on you both.

* We wish you a life of health and happiness.

* We pray that you will find an inner peace that will carry you through life's challenges.

* We wish your heart will always remain open to those around you and that you overflow with compassion for those less fortunate.

* We pray that you will always have self respect and dignity.

* We pray that you will always strive to be the best you can be, and never loose sight of the really important things life has to offer.

* And we pray that life will bring you much sweetness and that you will be as blessed and as happy as we are today, the day your own children are born.

* Most of all, we want you to be happy, have a free spirit and always view the glass as half full.

As your parents we pledge to protect you, enrich you, and love you unconditionally... We hope you can build on this foundation to achieve all that you desire in life. Your arrival has already brought us so much joy; and constantly reminds us of the awesome miracle of life.

All our love today & forever,

Mommy & Daddy
