the hardest job in the world (part 1, of many)

I’m going to write a little bit about why I said being a Dad is the second hardest job in the world.  I say this because our role as dad, father, pops, what have you – it doesn’t really start until the kid is born.  But I am seeing that for the mom, it starts from day 1 of conception.

My wife is now 7 weeks pregnant, and the poor girl is having allergic reactions and nausea that comes out of left and right field.  She can’t eat and keep things down, have to be careful about what she smells and what she looks at for fear of random nausea attacks.  I just have to take out the garbage and rub her feet – thing’s I do normally anyway.

So Junior, if in 20 years you find this old blog post and read this, know that your mother has had to put up with your antics from before you even had a spinal column.  I still have 8 more months to go before the real roller coaster ride begins.
