He's gunna be a soccer playa....

The coolest thing to happen for me with my soon to be born son was that I finally felt him kick. The other night before going to bed I was playing some Coldplay (suprise) to my son and Maya told me to put my hand on her belly. For a while there was nothing but just when I thought I wasn't ever going to feel him there it was. A faint little thump on my hand. It was so cool. I'm sure as the weeks continue to move on by I will feel him kick more and more. But feeling that for the first time was so cool. I can't wait to be a dad. I'm very nervous but pumped as well.

On the other hand I had a eureka moment the other day at work. With junior coming soon and getting excited to see what he is into and what he digs I thought how could I ever tell him to follow his dreams if I'm not striving for my own. That kind of lit a fire under my butt with my paintings. I have started a new one and have a sketch for another. We'll see what happens.

Cheers.

PS. The title is from Billy Madison. Ha.
