In good writing, words become one with things.

Ralph Waldo Emerson

The people who influence us most are not those who buttonhole us and talk to us, but those who live their lives like the stars in heaven and the lilies in the field, perfectly simply and unaffectedly. Those are the lives that mould us. ~Oswald Chambers

If your actions inspire others to dream more, learn more, do more and become more, you are a leader.

John Quincy Adams

This is just a quick update to say how much I love my girls. Sarah and Aria are beyond sweet. Even when they're irritable they're sweet :) They truly balance me out... I hope I can be what they need as well.

This is just a random picture I have here at work of Aria. I'll put one up of Sarah when I get home. They're both sick right now, and it's so sad. Too bad that means I have to do twice as much stuff around the house. OR I could just put it all off until Sarah feels better :)

Well, Aria has just recovered from a cold, and Sarah was hit firmly in the head with the flu yesterday. Which means Aria will get that too. And I will slowly fight it for a week or two and then succumb. Yeesh.

We ate at the Pacific Pearl yesterday. Nice but overpriced. Very good wait staff, very slow kitchen. I got the dish called Evil Jungle Prince Curry just because the name was so cool. The waitress just smiled and nodded when I told her that. I think I've lost my boyish charm at some point along the way. Anyway it was just yellow Thai curry...

AriaWow, from 3 months to 2 years. I was afraid that would happen - I blinked!

Aria is a blessing in ways I couldn't have imagined. Every parent knows what I mean, and non-parents can guess if they're insightful, I suppose. She flipped our priorities upside down. I mean, I was always dedicated to creating a stable, loving home for her, even before she was born. It's not that kind of priority...

Well, not only have I been learning how to be a daddy to a newborn, but work has been nuts (not in a very positive way) so no entries for three months. Aria is amazing. Every parent says that I guess. It's amazing to see a little Sarah with my blue eyes! She grows so quickly;lifting her little bobbing head to peer about and making little chirps when she's struck by something which only babies care about.

After a relatively quick process, we got out of there! Sayonara, hospital! Aria slept for the whole 35 minute ride home, although she got hungry at the very end. We've spent most of the day working out a process for feeding and changing and such. Tonight will be interesting :)
