Well, as of August 28, 2008 at 7:50 pm, I don't get to be selfish anymore. Darn, kinda liked that. I'm sure I'll still be able to fit it in.
See, I'm a father now. Little Grayson was born at said time. The old cliche about how it changes your life instantly and you never understand how much you can love someone until you have a kid, yeah, all that bruhaha, its true. All of it. I love that little boy. Absolutely love him. He's the new me.
I can't wait to corrupt his little mind with ideas of superheroes and galaxies far far away. I can't wait to teach him about life and making sure he grows up a Democrat. I'm excited to see him get to grow up in this time of history when we might actually elect another Kennedy-esque President, the kind that only comes by every generation and a half. I can't wait to learn the world all over again through his eyes. I can't wait to protect him and love him forever.
But I can wait, a loooong time, because for now, I just love holding that little boy as close and as tight as possible.

We have been friends forever, reading this brought a special chill to me, so special it should not be called a chill. I will argue one point w/ you from now till we die, don't make him grow up to be a Democrat, teach him what you taught me, to open my eyes and search further into who I believe in. It will be the greatest thing you can teach him. On several different levels.I wish I would of learned that earlier instead of just thinking it has to be one of two parties.
I know you are going to be a great father. I can not wait to see you raise your little boy, and at the same time learn new things from him.
See, I was right about something... Never knew what it was like to have someone you would actually give your life for until you have kids. Love ya, and I still need to see Grayson!
