daddy's thoughts

Dear Hope,
While you are in there with Mommy, I'll put down a few thoughts. This will be a first time for all of us. We'll do our best to be great parents. Sure, it'll take some practice & adjustments. But no matter what, we will do the best we can.

Today the nurse called me "Dad" and it took a while for me to respond. Then it hit me, that's my new name/title. It was the the first time a stranger called me that. But I'll get used to it over time & soon it will be natural.

Anyway, there's alot for all of us to learn on this journey and we'll have good times & bad times. But through it all, we will learn to laugh and cry together.
