Parenting in the Moment

As I’m sure I’ve mentioned before, I didn’t have a good work/life balance during my 20s.  As a result, much of this time period resides in my mind as a diluted memory blur.  Selective remembrance, likely out of self-preservation.

As a father, it saddens me to have lost the early formative years of my daughter to my own undiagnosed mental disorders.  Alas.  At least I didn’t kill myself.

No matter.  It sure is fun to document good moments now!

Wheeeee! What could go wrong?
Oh.
An annual tradition now.
Window shopping for blades.
I hope she grows up to be a nerd.
Plenty of swords to borrow for now.
