HOUSE CONCURRENT RESOLUTION
 1-1           WHEREAS, May 10, 1999, will long be remembered by our
 1-2     esteemed colleague, State Representative Kyle Janek, and his lovely
 1-3     wife, Shannon Janek, for that day marked the birth of their
 1-4     adorable baby boy, Ryan Edward Janek; and
 1-5           WHEREAS, When it became clear that this was not merely a case
 1-6     of false labor but the real event, both Janeks were reportedly
 1-7     swept off their feet at the prospect of finally holding their baby
 1-8     in their arms for the first time; Mrs. Janek and Ryan Edward came
 1-9     through the arduous labor process with flying colors, with the baby
1-10     weighing 7 pounds, 2 ounces, and measuring 20 inches in length when
1-11     he was born at 6:06 a.m. in Austin; though Dr. Janek sustained an
1-12     injury requiring stitches, he is reportedly feeling much better and
1-13     more than up to the task of taking on the years of roughhousing,
1-14     tickling, coaching, and comforting associated with fatherhood that
1-15     lie in his future; and
1-16           WHEREAS, The long-awaited arrival of this beloved new Texan
1-17     has brought great joy to his parents, as well as to his maternal
1-18     grandparents, Jimmy and Carolyn Riddle, and his paternal
1-19     grandparents, Eddie and Doris Janek; and
1-20           WHEREAS, Ryan will surely thrive in the loving embrace formed
1-21     by his parents, extended family, and friends--a circle that will
1-22     undoubtedly nurture this fine young Texan throughout his life; and
1-23           WHEREAS, It gives the members of the Texas Legislature great
1-24     pleasure to formally announce the birth of a new citizen of the
 2-1     Lone Star State and to congratulate his parents on this joyous
 2-2     occasion; now, therefore, be it
 2-3           RESOLVED, That the 76th Legislature of the State of Texas
 2-4     hereby officially welcome Ryan Edward Janek as a new citizen of
 2-5     Texas and extend heartfelt congratulations to State Representative
 2-6     Kyle Janek and Shannon Janek on the birth of their cherished son;
 2-7     and, be it further
 2-8           RESOLVED, That an official copy of this resolution be
 2-9     prepared for Ryan Edward Janek and his parents as an expression of
2-10     highest regard by the Texas House of Representatives.
