Youtube Baby Arrives!

... Hello there!

Sorry for the silence lately. I had a baby! Now I'm not one to brag, but Maryrose told me that many of you were asking about the fate of my bulging belly so I don't want to keep you in suspense any longer: I had a son on November 14. Thanks to all of you who sent in suggestions for names. We settled on Strider Patrick: "Strider" because we wanted a name that sounded strong and had a strong literal meaning. We hope this little one will indeed walk forward with purpose in life and take things in stride, and for my Lord of the Rings-loving husband, it was a nice bonus that Strider is also an alias for Aragorn. "Patrick" is for a dear family member who's been in our thoughts a lot lately.

We all know how special YouTube is, but let me tell you as a new parent, I've been even more awe-struck by the potential and power of the site. Naturally, Strider has his own YouTube channel, and it's what the family is buzzing about, never mind the so-very-yesterday digital photos I've also sent them. Relatives who never used YouTube before are signing up and moving beyond their email-only universe; it's amazing to watch the videos unite a geographically-diverse clan around its shining new star. I feel so lucky to live in a day and age when such things are possible.

So if you will allow me a moment of unfettered new parent pride, here is my little monkey on his one week birthday, making the funny faces that signal his impending drift into sleep:



Alright, now off to change diapers, but keep on writing. I'm still checking email and keeping one foot in the YouTube world until my return in February.

All the best,
Mia
The YouTube Team
