Eight Years

It never fails to amaze me how time slips by. On September 24, 2000 I met the first love of my life. Due to complications during and after delivery, I was unable to see her for the first few hours. They did, however, bring me two polaroid photos. My first thought? How could I have created this beautiful baby? I was in complete awe.

















While parenthood came unexpectedly early in my life, I really enjoyed it. In many ways, Dannah and I grew together. While I completed my remaining teenage years, she blossomed into this amazing little girl.

The awe has never gone away. I still look at Dannah in complete amazement. She has turned into this intellegent little young girl, who knows exactly what she wants. I am so extremely blessed to have her in my life.
