Vol, Issue 5

So I Get to go back to work on the morrow. Honestly, I am really not looking forward to it. I would be more excited if an unknown distant relative told me they were going to give me a trillion dollars because I was so good looking. But it could be fun to sell toilets again. I will just try to keep my chin up and hopefully the minutes will fly by quickly.

The problem is that of course I would rather spend the day with my new son Parker. It has been nice this past week just enjoying the quiet times with him. I usually am with him alone first thing in the morning. Erin usually is up more in the nighttime and enjoys sleeping in more than I. It has been a huge change for us. Erin and I were talking just the other day about how "grown-up" we are. We have a house, a dog, college degrees, cars, a church home, and now a baby. When we first started this journey together, we knew all these things were on our horizon. Yet, now that they are finally here, it is very humbling to see all that God has really blessed us with.

Parker is only two weeks old, but even in the short time we have grown so much as a family. It is crazy to think of the changes we have seen and then will see in the future. I am so pumped for them to come.
