Life with Carson - By Michael


Being a dad is hard...
Its not the waking up all night to help calm the fussy baby.  Its not the dirty diapers, spit-up, or the crying.  The hard part about being a dad is loving someone that i just met 7 days ago already more than anyone i've ever known.  Carson is the center of my world.  Everyone told me how my life would change after having a baby, it is certainly has, but not in the way i expected.  I now am terrified of crazy drivers on the road, influenza, or Sara or I falling down the stairs while holding him.  Before, these fears wouldn't have made my top 10 and now simple things like these are keeping me up at night.  I also can't seem to watch any of the sappy holiday family commercials on TV now without getting a bit choked up.  I am excited to see how my life and attitudes change over the next several years as I feel I have already changed so drastically.  Finally I will agree with everyone that being a father is hard....But I would not change it for anything in the world!
