I want to take a minute to say a few words before my daughter is born. I never really knew how I would feel when I was on the doorstep of being a parent - but now that I'm here I can say that it really is a special feeling. A combination of anticipation, excitement, nerves, and overall a feeling that I truly want to be as good a parent to her as my parents were to me. It's so easy to forget that the unknown road ahead of raising a child is in my parents rear view mirror - somehow the circular nature of this has only become clear to me as Jen's belly has grown big.
I'm sure every parent-to-be thinks their child will be special - but I can't help thinking that "The Pidge" will be extraordinary given how much love will be in our house, and how wonderful a mother Jen will be. There's no other person on the earth that I would want to take the parenthood journey with, no other person I'd want to spend my life with. I know there are a lot of things I don't know going into this, but somehow I feel at ease knowing Jen will guide me through.
I'm not sure how cliched all of that is to say, but it does come from my heart. Thanks to everyone in advance for your help and support.
Adam
