Well, it's been more than a month since my last post. Guess why. Just hours after my last post, my wife went into labor. After 12 hours, an epidural and several consults, we elected for a c-section. Thank god. Ten pounds and one ounce, 21.5 inches long. That's my girl!
Anyway, Katherine Marie. She's been my whole life for a month now. We call her Katie.
And she, and people responding to her, have renewed my faith in humanity. People have been so generous. She makes everyone smile who sees her.
I've been down deep in breasts and bottles, diapers and Desetin. It's a whirlwind experience, and it makes me so happy and so sad. 'Cause she's already growing up. How unfair is that? From the very first hour we spent together I knew she was already growing up. Which is what I want for her, right? Why then does it feel like it's going to fast already?
Anyhow, fast as it is, it's amazing. She has me wrapped around her little finger. I look forward to every day.
I figure I can get back to posting somewhat regular. And I've still a mind to do a podcast, when the time gets freed up. Too many people who love her are too far away. So, Katie is going to grow up on line. I don't know what that means yet, but I'll figure it out. But she's too wonderful, I have to share.
