I always knew I would be the second most important person in my life and I was more than accepting of that fact. My own views on being a man and a husband dictate that my loving wife comes first. I never dreamed that I would be so happy falling further from number one. She is now number one for my wife and I.

I am the proud father of a wonderful little girl named Elizabeth. She was born via an emergency Cesarean in April 2009 at 12:53am weighing 7 lbs., 10 oz. and 20.5 inches long. She has changed me and my life in a way I could have never dreamed. This is my introduction of my daughter to the world. She is my love and life. I barely remember what life was like before her and I cry whenever I think of what my life will be like if she were taken from me.

I love you little angel.
