My wife Elle and I are very proud to announce the birth of our 8th child and 7th son: Joseph Patrick.
Both mum and bub are doing well.
I am immensely proud of Elle. History is full of tales of military victory, political success and great conquests. But the truly greatest achievements are the quiet tales of love and sacrifice made by mothers. No title can ever come close to that of ‘mum’.
If you want to see courage, visit a maternity ward. It is on display there every day. Yet this tremendous effort and sacrifice is completely under-valued in our society and to such an extent that the ‘progressives’ even wish to do away with recognition of the biological reality of mothers and the female gender altogether.
To mothers everywhere, I salute you!
And my darling wife is my hero and inspiration!

Congratulations to the proud and happy Mum and Dad and thank you for sharing a beautiful family moment at such a special time. Joseph Patrick looks like he is taking all the excitement in stride. And I think I recognize the young lady from the procession on Sunday. Sounds like young Joseph Patrick was born on the vigil of Christ the King.

Congratulations and thank you for your words on the role of Mothers in life: without them we wouldn’t have life to begin with and then we could write a book on all the other reasons that we need to applaud, acknowledge and respect motherhood.
