Selected emails that I felt were amusing, for a variety of reasons. Written starting from 3am Friday morning in reverse chronological order.

 

 

What wonderful news!  I'm so excited for the two of you.  My first friends

to have twins!  Leave it to Val to always do things to the extreme.

 

Enjoy the many sleepless nights ahead.

Based on the rightmost picture, the male infant does not seem to like you.

Why is this the case?

 

Mazal Tov, once again.

so you DID know you were having twins- so why did you

tell me that "the baby is 6 and a half pounds and ready

to be born any day?" hmmmmm? THE baby? tisk tisk. though

looking at the pic of valerie it was pretty obvious she

was carrying more than 6 and a half pounds of baby

around!

-Jen Badik

 

Mazel tov !! I just read Rabbi Katz's e-mail. You must be very happy and tired. I like your Web site btw. (I think with twins you fulfill the mitzvah of "Be fruitful and multiply")

Anyway, whatever name you decide I am sure will be great. But you should make sure to give one of them a middle name starting with K:)

I heard through the grapevine, and then saw the pictures for myself on

your website.  This is wonderful!  The babies are gorgeous, and I can't

believe how HUGE they are.  Val, you have my sympathy on that one.
-Julie Schames

 

Many congrats!  I've got to hurry up with that blanket. (I think might have

to get some Ben Gay to limber up my knitting  muscles....)

 

The babies are enormous!  Twins coming in at 7+ and basically 7!  Val must

have been absolutely huge!!!!

 

love the web pics.  Keep it up proud papa!

-Dale Hwang

 

Congratulations! I don't know what any of these Jewish events your talking

about mean, but I'm sure that they will all be very exciting.  Happy holidays

and again congratulations!

Next time, you will believe me.
