Message from Ramon Bermo: "Juana just became a mommy, that will make me a daddy..  Beautiful Amanda Bermo was born December 5th at 10:02 am, weighted 7.7 pounds and measured 20 inches.  Both mommy and baby are doing great...!!  Daddy it's happier than setting all WR for all distances on the same day in front of the home crowd..."

As for these pictures, months ago he explained, "I've bought a digital camera precisely for this occasion."  These pictures were taken when Amanda was about 4 hours old.

Del Cabello Más Sutil
(music: Fernando J. Obradors,
sung by Kathleen Battle)

Del cabello más sutil
Que tienes en tu trenzada
He de hacer una cadena
Para traerte a mi lado.
Una alcarraza en tu casa,
Chiquilla, quiesera ser
Para besarte en la boca,
Cuanda fueras a beber.
