Yes, it's one of those images you don't forget. Mari and I went to the hospital and went for the tests that we knew would be positive. It meant a lot of waiting for me, and being poked and ultrasounded for her.

She said, "now we pay."

I said, "The results!"

She said, "Ha ha, I was teasing."

Yeah, she got me and good.
