"I think my water broke"

"I think my water broke" were the words that my wife told me on Dec.5. I looked at her and was like what do u mean your water broke. My son wasn't supposed to be here till Dec 12. I took my wife to the hospital were they confirmed that it was her water that had broke.

It was already about 11am when the doc then came in said they were going to go ahead and do the c-section @1:30pm boy was I nervous. I then called my family to let them know my son was coming. 1:30 came around and the doc came and gave me this gown and head cap to put on before they took my wife into the operating room.

As I was waiting very calmly I then heard my son let out a loud but healthy cry. As my eyes filled with tears of joy I leaned over and gave my a kiss and told her how much loved her I then looked at my son again and realized how much hair he had on his little head and boy did he have a head full of hair.

The nurse then asked me to cut the cord witch wasn't very easy "boy those things are hard to cut". The nurse cleaned my son up and handed him to me were then I took him over to let my wife see are bundle of joy. The nurse said that I could take my son to the nursery Witch I took my time doing very nervously.

At the end of the hall before the nursery was family and friends ready to take pictures like the pauperize. After everyone was done taking there pictures of my beautiful son I then carried him into the nursery were they then weighed him at 7lbs,3.5oz,19inches long.

Man was I one proud father again I was stuck on cloud nine witch I'm still there. January 5Th my son turned a month old boy does time fly by. Well that's my fourth experience becoming a father again hope you enjoyed it I sure did.

Prayer

Whether or not you believe in prayer or God, people tend to lean on prayer,
in time of crisis or need.

I think we live in our own little world, sometimes we don't think that people can go through the same things we do, but one thing is for sure we all bleed red and we all have emotion. Somewhere deep inside I think we do care about other peoples needs and concerns.

I have to say that prayer is an important part of the human race in order to survive life. We can not suppress it anymore.

"SPECIAL DAY"

We have a lot reasons why to say "TODAY IS A SPECIAL DAY".
Simply for having the opportunity to enjoy another day with the people that we love,is special.We should feel fortunate to live another day in this complicated life. A lot of times we are frustated about things that are not important. To find the real hapiness only you have to glance inside yourself and you will find it.

"Remember life is a challenge".

Sometimes Interesting

The day after "Black Friday," I got up out of bed and went into the kitchen. I made some coffee and sat down to look through the newspaper.

Just then, something caught my eye that had happened at a Wal-Mart in New York. About two thousand people were waiting in front for the store to open up. When the store opened up, an employee opened the front doors and got trampled to death and they just kept on going in.

I thought to myself "What has become of this generation of people?" Everybody is looking out for themselves. It seems like we have lost the value of life.

This generation has lost the true meaning of Christmas, not "X-mas".
It's all about Jesus Christ and His birth. We have become numb and have lost our morals. What a shame.

Falling

I remember, about eight years ago, I purchased a two-cycle motor scooter. It had small tires and was low to the ground. If you were to go fast on the scooter, it would be very scary because it was only made to go a certain speed. Well, I improved the engine a little to make it go faster.

For the next few days, I rode all over the neighborhood. It was quite loud because I had put a bigger muffler and carborator on it. One evening, I asked my ten year old daughter to go for a ride with me. We had ridden it before together, so she was comfortable with it. However, this night was different.

We rode at night because of less traffic, so she felt safe. We went to ride around at the school parking lot. We were on the sidewalk. I don't know what I was thinking. Suddenly, we were on the edge of the curb, and I thought I could jump off the curb with my daughter on the front of the scooter. Just then, we went forward, going head-first into the ground. To keep my daughter's face from being "roadkill", I put my hand in front of her face, and her face hit my hand and broke my wrist. She was pretty shaken up. We then walked home, talking about our experience.

Since then, she has never ridden with me again.

9 months and counting

"I'm Pregnant" were the words my wife told me on my birthday on April 26Th, 2008. I was so ecstatic to find out I was going to be a father for the 4Th time. It was the best birthday present any one could could have given me. About 5 months months into the pregnancy it was time to have an ultrasound to find out what we were having.

My wife and I were both hoping for a girl because we already have three wonderful boys. The day came for an ultra sound, boy was I nervous. "Its a boy!" said the doc. My wife then looked at me. At that time I thought I was dead. But we were both just so happy as long as our baby came out healthy. I was kind of relieved because if I was to have a little girl I would have to hurt any boy that would try and talk to my little girl.

Later on in the pregnancy we were able to schedule a c-section for my baby because my last son was 9lbs 8oz. We then scheduled the c-section date for Dec 12Th, 2008. We are now at Dec 4Th with only 8 more days till little Josiah is here. Being a father to Christopher, Tyler, and Ramon I still getting butterflies in my stomach just like when I became a father for the first time.

Live Mocha

I've just discovered an interesting website for learning a second language! It's called LiveMocha, and it's like a cross between a language class and Facebook. You create an account (it's free!) and work through lessons for the language you want to learn, but you can also chat with native speakers, make friends, and get encouragement from other people. One of my friends is learning Spanish right now from it, and loves it! You can't get to the link here at school, but you can do it at home if you want. I haven't tried it, so I don't know exactly how it works, but I just wanted you to know about it. Good luck!
