Addition to the desire to inspire family

Very early this morning my twin sister, who has already graciously provided me with a niece (LOL), gave birth to my new nephew. His name is Simon (I chose that!) and he's absolutely adorable. It took 6 minutes to deliver him and I'm so happy he's finally here. Now Zia Kim has to make sure his first word is Panton or Eames or Bertoia....

Simon, 3 hours old.
