Well it is October 23rd. Its a beautiful fall day outside, with the leaves being all different colors. Wow i love this time of year. It always reminds me of alot of different things. Fall= Football. Fall = deer hunting(which i didnt go this year.) Fall= awesome weather usually, not to hot, not to cold. Fall= happiness to me. It is my favorite time of year. But this year, fall means something else. Fall=new born baby. And that I am so so excited about. Our first little boy is due in less then 2 weeks. So I guess he can come at any time. Everyone asks are we ready? how can you ever be ready I wonder? But in reality im so ready for this opportunity. Traci and I have been trying to prepare ourselves by doing the best we can. We decided to read the Book of Mormon from start to finish before our son comes. We started last month, so we will finish it before he gets here. Its been so awesome reading it everyday, and to realize the guidance we have thru the scriptures. I guess in reality you can never do enough to prepare. You just do your best and thats all were asked to do. I know we have been prepared our whole lives for opportunities like this . I am so excited to be a dad. Im so excited that Traci and I have the opportunity to raise a child. Its a lot of work I hear. But I know as with anything, change brings growth, and Im ready to grow more with my little family. I know that I am very blessed. I have a beautiful wife that sacrifices so much. She does so much for our family. Its crazy to me to see how much women sacrifice to have a child. I couldn't do that, i know i couldn't. I really do have the best wife ever. She will be the best mom ever, Ian will be so lucky to have such a great mom. What does Fall mean more then ever now. Fall= Much Much Happiness!!!
