> [@Diogenes the Cynic](#): > > Sophia the Cynic was born at 11:30 on sunday night. She’s healthy and beautiful and perfect. So is her mom. Becoming a dad never gets old. 🙂 Awwwww… I mean, Morgan Spurlock is STILL a ham-fisted propagandist who makes utterly predictable dreck, but still… that’s very cool. Congratulations. ---

That third kid can be a doozy. It’s been done to death, but it is true that you and the missus have to switch now to a zone defense. May your daughter bring you as much joy as our new son has brought us. It would be impossible to wish you more joy than this. About the only time I ever agree with you is when you’re posting your opinions on childrearing and the sorry state of it nowadays. It’s obvious (from here, anyway) that you’re a good dad. And now you get to be a good dad again. [Previous page](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/its-a-girl/311160.md?page=2)
