                    in the house of representatives

                       Monday, September 17, 2007

  Mr. ETHERIDGE. Madam Speaker, I rise today to congratulate my son 
Brian and his wife Meredith on the birth of their second child, Cameron 
Elizabeth Etheridge. Cameron was born on my birthday Tuesday, August 7, 
2007 and weighed 8 pounds and 8 ounces and was 21 inches long. My wife 
Faye and I are excited about the birth of our third grandchild, and she 
joins me in wishing Brian and Meredith and their daughter, Virginia, 
great happiness upon this new addition to our family.
  Faye and I are truly blessed by the arrival of Cameron Elizabeth 
Etheridge. The birth of a new child is a joyous occasion that reminds 
us of the promise of a new life. And I know that Virginia is excited to 
have a sister with whom she can play. Children remind us of the 
incredible miracle of life, and they keep us young-at-heart. Every day 
they show us a new way to view the world.
  God has truly blessed my family with this new addition. My family and 
I are looking forward to spending a lot of time with our new bundle of 
joy and introducing her to all of our friends and neighbors in North 
Carolina's Second Congressional District.
