Cousin

I recently learned that I have a new first cousin, Emma Clare Morgan, who was born on January 21st in Orlando. She weighed 6 pounds, 12 oz. at birth---considerably more than I did. Not being as impetuous as I am, she decided to wait until she was full-term to be born. While the downside of this is that she didn't get to experience the joys of the big old world as quickly as me, the upside is that she seems to have some additional skills, like knowing how to eat and breathe at the same time, that I didn't have. As you know, I have many nicknames---Mister Baby, A-train, and so on. I thought it would be good if my new cousin had a nickname too. Mommy came up with a good one: E. Clare (a pun on the delightful dessert treat).
