Maggie: The First Year

Happy Birthday, Maggie!

Well, it’s finally here, our precious baby girl is a year old today! This past year has been the craziest, happiest, scariest, best year of my life. Being a dad is the greatest thing in the world and I couldn’t be happier, but I’m not going to lie to you – when Maggie was born I was scared to death! At that point I had never even changed a diaper. Of course, that was something Lisa quickly remedied! :) But I tried my hardest, Lisa helped me a long, and I learned that I wasn’t the only parent who didn’t get a manual but that you learn as you go. I know that every year won’t be like this one, some will be harder and others easier, but there is nothing else in the world worth all you have than your family – and I have the best wife and daughter I could have ever asked or hoped for! I also have the best parents, in-laws, and friends in the world, too!

Maggie girl, don’t tell you mommy this, but you are absolutely the best thing that has ever happened to me in my whole life. Nothing will ever change your life like having children, and you changed my life in the best possible ways. I know I haven’t done everything right this year but you’ve been patient with me as a daddy and I’m gonna keep on keepin’ on doing everything I can to learn and grow as a parent. Like I said, you’ve made me so happy – you are amazing, and I want to be a daddy you deserve. I love you baby girl!
