I am excited about this opportunity to write about the beginnings of parenthood from the father's perspective. I should first qualify by mentioning that I do not possess my wife's or her sister's technical saavy with blogging nor their artistic capabilities and most likely all of the pictures, backgrounds, and cool links that you see on the page will be their doing.
I also don't think that I possess anywhere near the range of emotions that they have to write about. At any given time, when asked how I am feeling, I will answer with one of six things... really happy, loving, excited, sad, angry, or (the far more common) pretty good. (1) My wife on the other hand has a rich boquet of emotions to describe which I often have difficulty processing. Such as... disappointed, frustrated or hurt (they all mean angry near as I can tell)... wanting to unzip you and zip myself inside or gobble you with a spoon (2)(a combination of happy,excited and loving), depressed, lonely, exhausted, or melancholy (all various gradations on sad) (3)
Finally, I am likely to be less prolific... I simply don't possess the cleverness to be an everyday poster. That being said... I do have some mildly interesting things to write about today...
Footnotes by Austin:
(1.) Sometimes you're hungry. There, that's seven
(2.) You've totally made me sound psychotic, which I'm not.
(3.) I am also often happy, why do I sound so lame in my husband's description of me?
