It has been quite some time since last I had time to scribble my thoughts down in such a comprehensible manner. I admit I have missed the written word, but other happenings in my life of late have drawn me elsewhere, and this is no bad thing, I think.
I spoke with Cuileth today and she drew out of me the thoughts lingering in my heart only to find I was not alone in my hopes and worries. We have decided on a step forward that will be perhaps the most wonderful and frightening chapter of our lives thus far-- we will become parents.
I have thought long and hard on this, and reflect mostly on my own father's impact on me in my years. I wonder if perhaps I can do a far better job than he and have hope that I can-- though the fear that I may not still lingers.
