    I now have a second granddaughter. My daughter-in-law gave birth last night to Ada Louise.

    This was planned as a home delivery, just as their first, but a surprise breach presentation necessitated an ambulance ride to the hospital. They were lucky to get an old obstetrician who was familiar with breach deliveries, so Ada was delivered without a Cesarean. That doesn't happen much anymore.

    Congratulations on your second granddaughter. Glad to hear a possible issue turned out well for them.

    I just learned that I am also going to be a grandfather for the second time in October !

    Perhaps there is a correlation: Prius ownership causes grandchildren. We may be able to get a class action lawsuit from this.

    Thanks. You will be happy to know that the baby was born in Detroit!

    Hmmm, maybe should have gone on down the road to Ada, MI instead.

    Re the class action lawsuit; I don't think it will fly. I already had one granddaughter before I bought my '04 Prius last April. Strangely enough though, a second one came along not quite two months later.

    So, which one is the baby?

    Yes, I am joking

    Looks good, appears to have the correct assembly and number of digits
