I called Mom tonight to see if her packet was delivered. We had a good time while I walked her through the steps to load the CD. Mom and Dad watched the announcement and I showed them some other things on the disk and stepped them through the contents of the CD. One of my brothers emailed and said he couldn’t access the birth announcement. That had me worried, but as I created the disks, I tested the CDs on two different computers. I am speculating that the difficulty was a copying error or miscommunication on which file is the birth announcement. Hopefully, it will work when tried again.

Being a new Dad, it is in my nature to be excited to want my family to see Gabriel's photos. With the many CDs we sent to our siblings, parents, friends, and extended family, I am anxious and hopeful that there haven’t been problems with accessing the pictures and particularly seeing Gabriel’s birth announcement.
