God delivered a very special gift to my family early in the spring. My older brother James and his girlfriend Saisha had their baby February 25, 2011, making Fynn Hendrix North the first male North of his generation. Some of my family were confused by my brother's choice for a name, thinking the better option would have been to name him James Franklin North IV, next in line after my older brother, Uncle Hank (whose real name is James), and Grandpa Jim (whose real name is also James).
I think it's perfect.
James is a sucker for anything related to our Celtic/Nordic ancestry, so it only seems natural that he would choose a Celtic name for his first child. And Hendrix as homage to James' undying devotion to rock.
I haven't got a chance to see him yet, but I've seen plenty of pictures and all I have to say is that he's beautiful.
In other news, we have one month left of class. Then, onto the magical fantasies and hallucinations of summer! I'm more than ready. I'm already in my swimming suit.
