Welcome!
So it begins. For those of you who have had children you can relate to the anticipation that Lisa and I are experiencing at this time. Although I’ll admit there are plenty moments of sudden anxiety these are becoming fewer and further between. In the gaps there is a much more comforting and tranquil mood mixed with a bit of the sanquine; as though Lisa and I know that our little man will soon be here and we’ve been expecting him much longer than we might realize.
Lisa has been beautiful throughout this and she amazes me daily at how gracefully she moves about this earth with such a large and precious cargo within her. It is a sight to see.
As the whole concept of blogging/online journaling is about as foreign to me as parenting, we’ll ask that everyone be patient as well will do our best to update this. Additionally, we would ask that each time you check out this web-site you realize that it is by the grace and artistic capacities of our dear friends Tim and Jessica (we’ll be adding links as well). Suffice it to say we know our little man with be surrounded by love from all angles and to help reassure our families that may be worried about the distance they are from us, we have family so near us here. Enjoy and rejoice. We’ll be talking with you all soon.

Dude, when we would sit down for our talks, you would always add a bit of depth to my shallow though process, but I never though you would write my own patriarchal advice for me…. when you wrote:
Yet we haven’t the slightest desire at this time to venture beyond a few blocks. Fulfilled, fulfillment. Love and lots of it.
That’s what it is all about! Don’t ever forget it! Don’t worry about what anyone else it thinking, or expecting of you. You have it right when you said that you were fulfilled just by being close to Lisa and Max.
