I love you mini ella, I love you lil penguin :)

Ill share you with the world forever. I hope to get more short stories put together and complete drawings of what the two look like and submit my works within a year to a publisher.



No matter how tough I can appear

I am a sucker for love… That and with every fiber of my being I want children eventually, most notably because I am the family man without family near by. I am a journey AND results person… I want a kid so bad but I’m not in any position to give them what they deserve..I was..I’m not now…I will be within a year or two.

I’ve always had this vision in my mind/heart of seeing my kid perform (anything anywhere, whether its a play in 1st grade, or a talent show in 5th grade or street performing something they are passionate about ie acoustic guitar, breakdancing or whatever) ... I long for the day that my kid’s future individuality and mind and heart make me cry when they do something ANYTHING for themselves and its not drugs, alcohol, theft, or anything thats the reciprocal of a beautiful representation of a ‘talent’. My eyes are so open and keen to ‘talent’ that I get loved and hated for who I am on a weekly basis…

Even if its the other way around and I continue to be a free spirited man, whom knows no limitations or fear…I would hope to never forget a few things and It would be equally as awesome if I was involved in something that made my kids cry tears of love and joy for their father (me…). An example is in the following video.

The 13 yr old daughter fights back tears as she watches her father sing and play piano on stage in a competition and even the judge of the competition starts to cry… I could listen to this for a week straight… because…wild horses couldn’t drag me away from passionately pursuing every aspect of the beauty I was made with and I am commissioned to discover…
