wow...that one will be a hard thing to beat (no pun intended)

I hope everything goes well with that since your life as you know it is over now...

As for me I would say that I help my mother proofread her English papers for school. She did one last night on a narrative essay. I didn't know what she wrote about until I started reading. It literally broke my heart; she wrote about the circumstances and how she felt when my sister's twin died at the age of 6 months. I was thankful that she invited me to share her experience but at the sametime I was extremely sad since I never got to meet the sister that died

Wow that's pretty sad dude....

Im sorry.

But my life shouldn't be over to bad.

I still have a year left in my college and things are looking good. I try not to look at things the harsh way, I try to pull the best out of them. I have great experience in my field, yet none I can put on my resume cause no one want to hire a guy who slaved his high schools servers :p. But I do have some great references in the It field.

Your life isn't over, it's just begun, never give in and keep looking up; that child will be the light of your life if you let it, don't let anyone tell you different.

Absolutely! If I'd known earlier just how great it is to raise a kid, I'd have started earlier and had more. They have a way of showing you what's really important in life.

Those of us who have raised children know exactly what you meant, Z. From being up every two hours for feeding at night, to no longer being able to jump in the car and go out on the town (helps to have a trusted babysitter), life will never be the same. But as H2SO4 said, the rewards, benefits far outweigh those things.

Cheers!

Hardest thing this week - training Joli Bear that Daddy plays in the sink "Later, you know that. We play in the sink just before bedtime."

We must do it every night.

Everything in the world makes sense when Joli laughs.

Congratulations on the pregnancy mckillwashere. A whole new chapter in your life beckons, sleepless nights, screaming abdabs, poo-ey nappies, sour milk sick...but the smiles and giggles make it all worth it believe me (we had our first just over 4 months ago :D ).


Hardest thing I have had to do in the last week was tell my fiancee that one of our baby skunks had died.
