Ok, you know I like running. You also know that when you run you have a lot of time to think. So Since I am a new daddy all I can think about is what I need to be doing. It is overwhelming to say the least. Being the self proclaimed Home Economist I really start off with what can I do to keep our budget in tact and provide the most for our family. Then I start thinking about "stuff". Beds, diapers, college, all that stuff that comes along with having a kid. I gently move from there to support. What can I do to make my wife's life easier? Do I need to call her girlfriends together to get the shower ideas rolling? Hey, wait we haven't registered for anything yet. Then I go back to stuff and budgets. I finish my run more mentally tired than physically. One thing I feel I do well is praying for my wife and the baby. Everyday I make it point to pray for her and over the baby. That I feel I do well. Now all the other stuff, I guess is up to God.
