                                 ______
                                 

                           HON. BOB ETHERIDGE

                           of north carolina

                    in the house of representatives

                        Wednesday, June 20, 2001

  Mr. ETHERIDGE. Mr. Speaker, I rise today to congratulate Clay and 
Anna Jackson on the birth of their first child, Master Luke Robert 
Wallace Jackson. Luke was born on Friday, May 11th, 2001 and he weighed 
8 pounds and 7 ounces. My wife Faye and my son Brian join me in wishing 
Clay and Anna great happiness during this very special time in their 
lives.
  As a father of three, I know the immeasurable pride and rewarding 
challenge that children bring into your life. The birth of a child 
changes your perspective on life and opens the world to you a fresh, 
new way. Their innocence keeps you young-at-heart. A little miracle, a 
new baby holds all the potential of what human beings can achieve.
  With great happiness, I welcome young Luke into the world and wish 
Clay and Anna all the best as they raise him.
