Mom and Dad I have been waiting anxiously for more than 40 weeks ... I did wish for a long time and I also made some joke in recent days to keep some 'suspense on the date of my arrival, but the end is here!
Galileo with his first little friend, as big as him: microsaur (thanks to Eleanor!)
A Swedish toast after the great effort .. .
My name is Galileo and I was born February 26, 2011 in Norrköping, at 08:14. I am a healthy and lively brontopiccolo of 3475 g and 48 cm: they say that looks like that to my to my brontomamma brontopapà, who are well and happy that I finally be here with them. I also already knew my grandparents and uncles (as well as a cousin waiting for me in the belly of her aunt) who greeted me via Skype: what a beautiful family I have!
My name has a special meaning for mothers and fathers: addition to being Italian (I have been told that I must never forget where I came), recalls a famous person who has worked in Padua (where even mom and dad have studied) and think - this person was an astronomer, just like dad ! Io non so se diventerò bravo come lui, o se mi piacerà la scienza o qualche altra cosa quando sarò grande, ma la mamma e il papà mi hanno detto che - qualunque cosa io voglia fare - l'importante è fare del proprio meglio e non smettere mai di inseguire i propri sogni.
Ciao a tutti, l'avventura continua e adesso anch'io ne sono parte !
Se non potete essere un pino sulla vetta del monte,
siate un cespuglio nella valle, ma siate
the best little shrub on the bank of the stream.
Be a bush if you can not be a tree.
If you can not be a highway, be a path.
If you can not be the sun, be a star;
not with the amount you win or fail.
Be the best of whatever you are.
eagerly sought to discover
what are called,
and then make yourself do it passionately.
(Martin Luther King)
