Pearl Will Be One Week Old

It's hard to think of my life without Pearl in it now. She has been here a mere week and I can't even fathom the thought of her not being here. People say that your life changes, what they don't say is that you turn into a completely different person. Don't get me wrong, my morals and beliefs are unchanged, however every thought process begins with the fact that I am a daddy now. It's amazing really, this fatherhood thing, to have this little person depend on you for everything. She makes my heart melt when she looks at me with her big beautiful eyes. Also, everything is cute now, I mean EVERYTHING!! She farts:it's cute, she hiccups:it's cute, she sighs:it's cute, everything this baby does is adorable. I think that it's because she is just so damn adorable that everything around her and everything she does becomes cute vicariously through her. I have been on many wonderful adventures in my life and experienced a great many things. I have lived in many places and done more in the last 15 years that most people do in their whole lives. I have got to say that being a Daddy is the most exciting and important adventure yet. Don't even get me started on being a husband to the most wonderful Mommy in the world, that's for another journal entry...
