So, in one month it will have been 2 years since I found out I was going to be a daddy. I gotta tell you that if you would have told me anytime before that day, that I would be married with a daughter right now I might have laughed. I wouldn't change anything about my life right now, except may be living somewhere other than Florida (anywhere!). There are 3 days that I have been the happiest I had ever been in my life (actually a few more than that since Pearl got here). The first was when Kim told me I was going to be a daddy, and the second was when Kim said "I do". The third, was the day that I met my daughter for the first time. Looking into her big blue eyes (with the great eyelashes) I suddenly felt my whole world change into something exciting and scary, but I was definitely up to the challenge (and still am of course).

Happy Christmas to my readers, or happy whatever holiday that you celebrate in your homes. We are waiting until tomorrow when the presents from Nana and Bumpa get here to open them all, they were delayed due to all the snow up north. It was a lazy day at the Bowman residence today, laying around and some nap taking, no football though as we're not really into that. I guess football is more of a turkey day thing, see that's how much we know about football related things (not much at all).
I made dinner tonight and in fact eating it right now as I post this entry. I made bacon wrapped pork loin stuffed with boudin, garlic whipped red potatoes, and green beans. It's very good, but anything with bacon is good in my opinion, plus Clay don't make crap food, LOL...

Well, tomorrow is Christmas, it sure feels like it got here really fast. It will be Pearl's second one, she sure has grown and change a lot since her first one. It's amazing to look at the pictures from last year and this year together. Next Christmas she should be talking even, and asking all sorts of questions about Santa.

It's so nice to come home to a smiling Pearl, and a wife that makes me dinner. It's the simple things in life that make the world go round I think...

We got all (well, almost) the food and paper goods today. Looks like we will open next Monday if all goes according to the plan.
Pearl was so happy to see me when I got home, it made me feel all warm and fuzzy. I sure did miss her today, I kind of have been spoiled the past couple of months. Being able to spend so much time with my family has been so nice. I am tempted to take the day shift so I will have my nights at home, we'll see.
