some day i'll step up.......congratulations pat.

I met my friend pat when we were very young and he's probably the friend I've known the longest. He got married on my birthday and last saturday night (sunday morning to be exact) at around 1:00am he became the proud new father of a beautiful baby boy. Ryan Patrick is about 8lbs and 19 inches long and is a wonderful bundle of joy. Hopefully i'll meet the new baby tomorrow. Both new dad and mom and baby are doing well and I just want to say congratulations.

A few weeks ago was fathers day and I meant to write a post about it. I am not a father but I hope to be one day. Thinking of the responsability involved scares me to death. Now not taking anything away from mothers because I have one of the best but being a father is a very important job. I hope one day to step up....as have a few of my friends.

The picture below is taken on one of the many family vacations my parents took us as kids to ocean city, MD.

Thanks for everything dad.
