Today we are celebrating Ainsley's one year birthday. And I'm not very happy about that.
This year has been an amazing journey and I hate that is going so quickly. It's hard to believe 1 year ago I was sitting in my office downstairs congratulating myself for preparing early for her arrival thoroughly planned...one month away. In the middle of finishing my list of things to do at work before taking off four weeks later Courtney broke the news things were going off script.
One of the things people keep telling me is how much fun it is going to be as she gets older. "Her little personality is just going to explode!" The last thing Ainsley needs is more personality. She is already very clear on what she likes and does not like, what she wants you to do for her, where she wants to be and does not want to be, she has big laughs, big cries, she is already amazing.
I love being a dad. Even more than I thought I would. And I can't help but think a big chunk of that time has already passed.
It has been a great year.
