Little G here is just adorable. He spent the whole evening sleeping or eating so we didn’t get a look at his little peepers. These little guys are life changing. The world no longer revolves around you, but around them. Sure, there are the feeding schedules and diaper changes and sleep schedules to think about, but there are bigger questions and worries. What will they be like when they grow up? Who will he look like ? (They change so quickly, you know.) Will he be a jock? Or a geek? Or a nerd? (There’s nothing wrong with any of those, by the way.) Will he find someone to love and grow old with? Will he be happy?
The future of the world rests in their hands. We have the responsibility to give them the tools to do so. Can we? Will we screw it up? With a wing and a prayer, and a few mistakes along the way, we do the best that we can. And they grow up and become everything you’ve hoped for them to be.
[Edit to add] In case you are wondering, G is my co-workers newborn son and he attended our company Christmas party. He’s not quite one month old yet.
