Playwright dads do it best, no?
Lin-Manuel Miranda, the phenom behind Hamilton (and the upcoming star of Mary Poppins Returns, ahem) welcomed his second child Thursday night with wife Vanessa Nadal.
And he announced the news in a perfect tweet.
First, Miranda set the scene: "Hospital Room. Night." And then: "The screams reach a delirious crescendo. FRANCISCO MIRANDA ENTERS. He is 7 pounds and 13 ounces." Pause for a timely intermission.
Int. Hospital Room. Night.
[The screams reach a delirious crescendo. FRANCISCO MIRANDA enters. He is 7 pounds and 13 ounces.]
Intermission.

This is the second child for the couple, who also have a three-year-old son, Sebastian.
It should be noted this is one polite baby. Baby Francisco apparently arrived after Miranda got a chance to watch Thursday night's The Good Place finale. Just like us, he was pretty impressed with the comedy's second season existential twist.
Somebody get @KenTremendous a tiara and a diagonal word belt for his good good show #TheGoodPlace — Lin-Manuel Miranda (@Lin_Manuel) February 2, 2018
