“So what are you going to call her?” asked the ultrasound technician.

“Amelia Grace.” said Jess.

“Oh that is my middle name.”

“Really?”

“I was named after my Grandmother… she was named during the whole Amelia Earhart thing.”

“Oh. I didn’t think about Amelia Earhart.” said my wife.

…

I don’t know what that means. But ok.

Its a girl! Healthy, tall for her size, and amazingly human even in the womb at 22 weeks. She was even moving her jaw up and down during the ultrasound. Like she was sucking on her thumb already. She even gave us a nice dance of legs and arms while we were watching.

She is going to be a swimmer like her mom and dad. Tall and fast. Well, if Tiger’s dad can raise a champion golfer, I can raise a champion swimmer. Right?

The Amelia Torpedo.

Now just watch… because I said it, she will hate swimming.

Ha.
