What Daddy was working on when Lucy came…

This case.

Okay, so that’s not totally true. He was actually working on this one. But given Lucy’s recent trip to Jaleo and her abuelos’ upcoming visit, the Spanish shipwreck case would probably make for a better blog entry.

He did work until 2 am before my water broke at 5 am. When I woke him up, he told me that it wasn’t true and go back to bed. The good news is that we were expecting him to pull an all nighter on Thursday night, the night she was born. Short term, it was probably a good thing. Long term, he probably needed those billable hours!

Tonight, to help Henry prepare for a firm presentation, we watched the Discovery Channel’s Treasure Quest, which tells the story of the case, and the loss of the Mercedes, in more detail. We’re hoping that if Spain wins the ship back, Henry will get knighted (or at least a year’s supply of jamon iberico and cruzcampo beer).

Spain (and Daddy) win Round One!
