Of Hopes and Dreams

Well I am spending my days planning tree houses (pictures to follow) and slides off garage roof to a paddling pool. Am I dreamer, if so am I the only one? Whatever the wife has many opinions thankfully I only hear half of them at best. I will build a miniature theme park in my garden I swears it I do.
Also bump massive and heartbeat good today.
Can't wait to hold it and wipe my wife's brow, although suspect she will be strangling me, a lot...........

Of Holes and Hobbits

15 weeks and according to the lovely wife the baby can hear, so I am reading The Hobbit, not only the greatest Children s' book ever but a wonderful treatise on changing the world no matter how small or uninvolved you are. Hope the baby is picking up a modicum of narrative but the real excitement is looking forward too reading it again when they are a bit older.

I am so excited about it can't wait to hold it and tuck it in bed and read it to sleep, and make it safe. Some people keep saying being a parent is the best job ever, its not a job its the sole purpose of existence and a privilege to be thankful for every day.
