On this date in 1998, this beauty came slowly into view, like a honey-swathed Egyptian god Mardi Gras float, awakening to his New World, so regal, so beautiful, and so fine...

What a beautiful picture! Turning 10 is a big event, marking entry into those delicious double digits, and I hope his day was as magical as your description of the day of his birth. Happy birthday to all of you!

anno: We've been celebrating all the events of the days up to his "debut." All day felt very special; even while slogging through a day of urchins, I could feel the vibe. We'll continue the partying on through Saturday's party. Thank you for your birthday wishes.

Wow, 10 years old and I can see why you're so smitten! :D

Happy Birthday young one!

Ms A: His mother's, no doubt, though the look is probably his dad's.

So this is Walden. I'm all about the eyes and they being the windows to the soul, etc. And his show tenderness, intelligence, calmness....

He's a handsome boy, Paschal. My condolences to you and your wife when he reaches his teens... :)

Happy Birthday Walden....

This photograph is wonderful as is how you cherish the gift of sharing life with your son and wife. Wishing you all a happy belated birthday!

Tammie: They're both beauties, and they certainly cracked me back open.
