have a kid

Boy- Logan Micheal
Girl- Kourtney Diane

I am so excited. I thought of this list today and some things I am well on my way to accomplishing. I will get on here soon and update this plus put a new pic up.

Parenting can be one of the most challenging undertakings on earth especially if you are doing it alone as I did, but worth every gray hair and every minute of lost sleep. You will know it’s worth it when they appear before you at age 34 and say “thanks for being such a great mom, I love you”.

stranger things did

was the best thing I ever did!

A few things no one tells you their kids give them: A new perspective on life, Hope, Lots of love, cute stories to tell, Your childhood back, Dirty diapers and the occasional moment of you holding them while they are sleeping and feeling so much love for someone else

Victoria

Alexander
Antonio
Samuel
Dan (for a middle name)
Cristiano
Nicolas
Leonidas

I can’t imagine doing this without my wife, but having 2 of us around to help out makes it better. Either way, it is a lot of work. I look forward to seeing our little girl develop into a good citizen and strong young woman. I’m already setting goals in my head for her development towards a well adjusted life.
