Now, Jonah, comes the hard part: Getting your figure back.

Congratulations, Jonah and Lucianne!
I'm so happy for all of you. God bless you all.
Love, meema

Congratulations, Jonah! Although, I think Julianne Malveaux Goldberg has a nice ring to it.

The most wonderous occurrance in the world is the birth of a baby girl.

Congratulations, grandma!

Happy Birthday Lucy.

Thanks for sharing the great news. Enjoy everything!

Where there's life, there's hope. May this new one bring much happiness to her extended family.

Congratulations on the birth of your new baby girl! Good Luck and God Bless from the Great Midwest (Red Country!)

May God's smile rest lightly on Lucy Tighe Goldberg! By the way, how do you pronounce *Tighe*?

Congratulations and all the best always!

Lucianne...welcome to Grandmahood...you'll just love it. There's nothing on earth quite as special as a grandchild. God bless you all.

Gorgeous name...

Congratulations, Lucianne and the entire Lucianne family!


Many happy returns...
Liz

There is nothing quite so sweet, as the pitter-patter of little feet!

Ditto #10 - how do you pronounce the middle name? Tiggy? Teeg? And can we see a photo soon?

And Lucy's a good name. Old-fashioned, and there won't be six others in her kindergarten class.

Congratulations to the parents and Grandparents. Blessings on this new little life. Praise the Lord......

15,

I think it's "Teeg" -- I had a girlfriend in college who's brother-in-law (?) had the last name, McTigue (Irish, no doubt!) or was it McTighe -- I never actually saw it in print, anyway, that was pronounced: Mc-Teeg.

Best wishes for the health and happiness of this new member to your family!

Congratulations to the proud parents and proud grandparents!

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I say to myself
What wonderful world


I see skies of blue and clouds of white
Bright sunny days, dark sacred nights
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world


The colors of the rainbow are so pretty in the skies
Are also on the faces of people walking by
I see friends shaking hands saying
How do you do?
They're really saying
I love you


I see babies cry, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll ever know
And I think to myself
What a wonderful world
Yes, I think to myself
What a wonderful world


And I say to myself
What a wonderful world

Such wonderful news on a day it's much needed!

I'm sending a contribution to this wonderful site in her name.

God bless her, and may she grow to understand His unconditional love and His Fatherhood by the example of her own Daddy.

oh gee Miz Lucianne, I am still waiting for those wedding pictures you were going to post. Now just post pix of the wee one.

Congrats. The only regret is that it should have been Luci with the I. I was just reading the Frum article in the last issue of NRODT and realized that in terms of rushing things, Jonah rushed to fatherhood (including the gestation period) far faster than the US has rushed to war against Iraq (just to tie the blessed event into world news, as you always exhort us to do).

I happen to love the name Lucy...and when will we see a picture of the wee angel???

Lucy Tighe:
On the day that you were born
The angels came together
And decided to create a dream come true
So they sprinkled golddust in your hair
And golden starlight in your eyes
And there were you.

I didn't know there would be a thread for this occasion so I already sent congrats to Lucianne. I know she must be "bustin' with pride and love."

Congrats!, to all you Goldbergs. Just remember Jonah, it is never too early to start planting those conservative ideas. For that, we really need to home school.

Whoohooo!!! Congrats to everyone!

Wonderful news. Congratulations to all.

I'll bet that little girl will have daddy wrapped around her little finger faster than he can say scat.

Congrats and best wishes!!! What WONDERFUL news!!!

Angels come in all sized packages!!! This one weighs 7 and 10!!!!

I am sending a HUGE virtual teddy bear and a virtual hand-crocheted pink, yellow, and white baby afgan for the little princess. Give her a kiss for me on the back of her neck, just below her hairline (the best place to kiss a baby, IMHO )

I think it's pronounced 'tie' but am open to correction.

Congratulations again, a lovely name!

Lucy is a truly great name. Good to see that you were not conned into going with the "modern" names like I was on both of our daughters.

Congratulations to you and your family, Lucianne. May God grant Lucy and her generation a long, enjoyable life.

What a lovely gift for you Lucianne!! My daughter was the first grandchild and she was so spoiled by her grandparents but she has turned into a lovely lady. I bet you will do the same thing. Nice to have another conservative in the US.

Jonah...the great part about a girl, you get to set the standard....
...what is a 'Daddy's Girl'?...
I have a 7 year old ( Bridget ) and have raised the bar a notch or two myself.

God bless little girls.

Congratulations to Mom, Dad and Grandparents!

When will we see a picture?

You have struck gold. Blessings and congratulations.

The Irish pronounce Tighe -'tie' like bow tie

--so tell us Lucianne--the origin of little miss Lucy's middle name!

and here's her birth day tribute from the fabulous Thomas Traherne


Wonder

How like an angel came I down!
How bright are all things here!
When first among His works I did appear,
Oh, how their glory did me crown!
The world resembled His eternity,
In which my soul did walk;
And ev'rything that I did see
Did with me talk.

The skies in their magnificence,
The lovely lively air,
Oh, how divine, how soft, how sweet, how fair!
The stars did entertain my sense,
And all the works of God so bright and pure,
So rich and great, did seem,
As if they ever must endure
In my esteem.

A native health and innocence
Within my bones did grow,
And while my God did all His glories show,
I felt a vigor in my sense
That was all spirit; I within did flow
With seas of life like wine;
I nothing in the world did know,
But 'twas divine.

Harsh rugged objects were concealed;
Oppressions, tears, and cries,
Sins, griefs, complaints, dissensions, weeping eyes,
Were hid, and only things revealed
Which heavenly spirits and the angels prize:
The state of innocence
And bliss, not trades and poverties,
Did fill my sense.

The streets seemed paved with golden stones,
The boys and girls all mine --
To me how did their lovely faces shine!
The sons of men all holy ones,
In joy and beauty then appeared to me;
And ev'rything I found,
While like an angel I did see,
Adorned the ground.

Rich diamonds, and pearl, and gold
Might ev'rywhere be seen;
Rare colors, yellow, blue, red, white, and green,
Mine eyes on ev'ry side behold;
All that I saw a wonder did appear,
Amazement was my bliss,
That and my wealth met ev'rywhere;
No joy to this!

Cursed, ill-devised proprieties,
With envy, avarice,
And fraud, those fiends that spoil ev'n paradise,
Were not the object of mine eyes;
Nor hedges, ditches, limits, narrow bounds,
I dreamt not aught of those,
But in surveying all men's grounds
I found repose.

For property itself was mine,
And hedges, ornaments,
Walls, houses, coffers, and their rich contents,
To make me rich combine.
Clothes, costly jewels, laces, I esteemed
My wealth, by others worn,
For me they all to wear them seemed,
When I was born.

Thomas Traherne

Well, look who came! Now that is news.
Congratulations to all the family, and God bless.

Welcome to the world baby girl, may you be graced with the wisdom of Solomon .

Blessing and hugs to the littlest Goldberg angel. Welcome to earth Little One, we are certain that you will do your family proud.

Oh goodie!
A wonderful young lady for my grandson (he's 10 mos.old today)!!

How joyous a day! Congratulations and all of God's blessings to mom, dad, grandmas, grandpas, aunts, uncles, everyone!

'Welcome, little one! May strong arms hold you, caring hearts tend you and may love await you at every step...'

Congratulations! Is it too soon to start planning for the 2038 presidency?

Congratulations Gramma Lucianne,
this is very exciting news! I've had no computers up, and after the guy fixed a few things tonight, it's the first thread I saw. What a delight!. Buy pink, pink, pink!!!!

Lots of sleep and love to you...

"Out in the sunny garden play
Be happy baby all the day
The world is yours,
Sweet baby dear,
For you are loved and wanted here."

Congratualations

It is indeed pronounced "Tie"...I knew a guy at my college job whose last name was "Tighe". Beautiful name, Lucy Tighe.
Will she be called Lucy, or Lucy Tighe, the whole thing? I'm a Southun' gal where double names are the THING, ya know.
