Well, it's been a week now since I handed over my pip-squeak back to his mom. I gotta say, I miss him a lot. Having him around every day and then all of a sudden not having him any more is a real shock to the system. I've also gotta say that I feel really blessed to have been able to spend that time with Ethan, and do fun Father/Son stuff. By far the most fun that I had was when I took him to the beach for the first time ever. I tought Ethan the basics of doing a jig after...

Welcome to the poor man's vblog...a link with text :) I took this video on my digital camera the other day. It's 2:41.

So I had the first weekend alone with my son, Ethan, this past weekend. It was awesome! What a perfect father's day gift - being able to actually spend (at least) some of it with my son. He even "got me a card". See, he's 2 1/2 so it was my mom that really got the card, but she helped him sign it and he drew some circles in it for me. :) There were a couple of times that he cried for his mother, but we got thru those and it was only when he was expecting something out of...

So I haven't posted in a while. See, on Monday, my life changes. Exactly how, I'm not sure yet. I'm going to family court to get joint custody of my son, Ethan. I haven't seen him in a few months, and I miss him terribly. Hopefully I will no longer have to wait and wonder if he's thinking about me, wondering how I am, if he misses me at all. My son is almost three years old, and I finally get to be his Daddy. Pray for me.
