Barb had been finding special things for each Funk family member to be ready for the day. Weeks ahead of time, she found lots of nice little 'ooo' size singlets and such in blue. Somehow she decided to take the punt and buy them in that colour, feeling that if the baby was a girl 'she' could wear blue OK anyway. Let's not be sexist here. She found some nice books for Piper too. For Bec and Gord there was champagne and bright red tea towels because red seemed to have been adopted by the Funks as the theme for the month. We resurrected an old mobile which we had used in the 1980's when our kids were babies and restrung the felt creatures. After the birth, we picked up an additional little jumper and jeans suit with Canadian motifs sewn on for the little BB Funk. This was like a second Chistmas. Giving gifts seemed the natural thing to do to commemorate both Jesus' birth and this Funkie one.
