Sam Harris, the extraordinary singer and Broadway star who I loved as Perry Pearl on "The Class," has just posted a video blog with some extraordinary news: he and partner Danny Jacobson have adopted a little boy. The baby arrived at their home on Monday and Sam says his name is Cooper Atticus Harris-Jacobson.

"He is beautiful and he is perfect...he's here and he's ours," an emotional but composed Sam says.

See Sam's message for yourself but don't expect to see any footage of little Cooper just yet: "Danny and I have decided not to show you Cooper ... Certainly in awhile we will....I know you understand that."

Congratulations to the sensational Sam and to Danny on their bundle of joy. This was such a happy story that I'm late to a dinner because I had to post it right now!
