Bill & Sheila Become Grandpa Bill and Grandma Sheila

Our first grandchild, Benjamin Robert Schatz, was born at 5:38 this afternoon at St. John's Hospital in Tulsa.  We were up at 5:00, had breakfast at the Diner at 6:00 and were walking into St. John by 7:00 AM.  It was a long but good day with lots of time to talk, think and simply be around each other.  My good friend Bruce DeLay came by and spent much of the afternoon with Sheila and I.  Funny how guys with "Rev." before their name somehow know how to show up at exactly the right time.  Around 4:30 things started picking up and a little after 5:30 Little Benjamin was here.
