Like the lyric from the song Waterfall that Dwight wrote for Emily on his 3 Pears album says… Babies get born even in a… Pandemic lock down… With great joy and happiness Dwight & Emily announce the birth this past Sunday of their new baby boy.

This is the greatest thing for Dwight since he wore those yellow leather pants on top of a train for the ‘A Thousand Miles From Nowhere’ video.
