Bailey's website has reached a milestone today that was unimaginable when we first put it together. Our son's own place on the world wide web has clocked up 10,000 visitors. Since the launch of the website, that equates to an average of almost 43 visitors per day, however, when the site was very new there could be days go by without a single visitor. Conversely some periods of 24 hours have seen visitors coming in in droves, almost in 'gold-rush' proportions of in excess of 500 visitors in a single day.

It is humbling to realise that what began as a very simple idea to allow our own friends and faimly to get to know our boy has grown into him having friends in places as far away as Canada, Australia, India and the USA as well as here in the UK.

We know that many people return to the site again and again and that we aren't looking at 10,000 different people, but even so, how many other babies have touched so many lives? Regardless of whether people visit once or return again and again, each visit means the world to us.

How many other babies, still 3 weeks shy of their 1st birthday, have reached out to so many people?

Michelle and I want to thank everyone who has spent time getting to know Bailey. The comments left in the Guestbook never fail to touch our hearts. He was a blessing in life and he will always remain a blessing to us and hopefully to those who have known him through the pages of this site.
