The Dad Diaries - Part 4 - Becoming a Daddy


There are many reasons I could give to you as to why I've not been blogging of late. Oh, I'm sure you'd also be sympathetic to the assertion that I've been busy - of course that would be simple and it is also true, but I haven't been so busy that I couldn't systematise the cutlery section of the dishwasher nor bake biscotti (don't go mad on the almonds if you ever do so too). The truth is that I didn't want to put into words what I've been through - not that it's been indescribable nor too emotional to relive it all, just that I don't know where to start. And, if I'm completely frank; I'm slightly embarrassed. I haven't coped with this as well as I would have liked. I'm not particularly proud of how I behaved when deprived of sleep, when faced with medical emergencies or bubbling grey poo.
So here we are; Fran, Daniel and I. And you, I suppose. At the beginning of what feels like is going to be a very special journey...I for one can't wait.

I think I will leave this entry, a little too enigmatically for my liking, at that. Other than to say, thank you so much for the masses of support we've received. I love you all.
