Congratulations

Today my friend Mark and his wife Pepper had their first baby. I have to say first off that I love children - from a distance. I’m excited to have my own child some day and I’m sure that I will have no problem loving my own child. I have, however, never felt much emotion upon hearing about the birth of family and friend's new babies. I just feel a little disconnected. I received news of Pepper and Mark’s birth today and I finally felt what I’ve only seen others feel so often. It's real true - happiness. I love their little son. I love him because he is innocent. I love him because he is a mix of such beautiful, intelligent and loving people. And I love him for the life he will live being raised by them.
