Family Life

I'd like to thank all my readers for coming by and reading my blog entries. I hope you enjoyed reading the short series of “Happily Ever After?”. I'm going try to keep pace and post entries more often. My next entry will be titled “Family Life”. I hope you all enjoy the entry.

After our wedding, my wife and I went on our honeymoon. I wanted to go on a cruise for the honeymoon because i've been on one before. The cruise I wanted to would sail to ensenada. The cruises and pretty cool and very relaxing. They have a buffet all day, drinks, a causual dinner night, a formal dinner night, a small concert, and a casino but you have to wait until the ship got into international water. My wife wanted to go to disneyland. So, disneyland it was. But, during my time with my wife, she would poke at for not taking her on “a” cruise.

Disneyland for honeymoons is a lot of fun, for any occasion for that matter. They have something for every setting. You name it, they have it. You get what you pay for. Since i've been there countless times for fun and for college credits, I knew what we were getting into. A lot of walking! We did everything and had a lot of fun. It was on our honeymoon that we decided to have a baby.

I really loved married life. Having someone that loves you for just you, not for what you can or cannot do. Some to confide with, without worrying about them breaking your trust in them. Someone to look up to for support and encouragement. Someone who will call you on you mistakes and still be there. Someone to cuddle with at night and not worry if it was just a dreaan and not be there when you wake up. And watch your kids wake up and grow into the person they will become tomarrow. Be there for good and hard times and sickness and health.

My wife going through labor for our first baby must be the scariest, yet one of the most joyful moments in life. Seeing my wife go throught so much pain and agony made me feel very helpless. It one point I was so worried she was going to die. And here comes Dr. Demerol to save the night. After the anesthesioloist gave my wife a shot of demerol, she had the baby within minutes. It was a beautiful baby boy.

I really like being a father, especially when they are babies. Babies are the sweetesst little bundle of joy. Babies are parents pride and joy. Watching our chrildren grow are the most joyous and heartbreaking experiances a parent can have. We get heartbroken because we afraid of change. At times I feel so bad because i wanted more for my son then I could offer.

I really loved watching my wife be mother. There is nothing more picture perfect then a loving mother tending to their babies unconditionally. Although I could not do certain things she made sure she helped me be apart of everything. When I would get down on myself for not being able to do the things I wanted to do for baby boy, my wife reason with me and made sure she was there to help.

Soon after having our baby boy I decided to go back to junior college to shore up some elective course so I can transfer to a university to obtain my Bachelors degree in Psychology. Just before I stated at the university, I met with my rehabilitation counselor to put together a plan. My counselor encouraged me to go full time, but I was nervous because I was in a excelerated program. Just before I started at the university my wife and I brought a condo.

Also, soon before I started my bachelors program my wife gave birth to our second baby. This time, during my wife's labor I was a lttle more at ease because I knew what to expect. I still felt I wish I could do so much more for my wife. We had a beauriful baby girl, by the way.

When my lil girl was able to be left with me or my wife's sister or her mother, we both were going to school. I was very proud of my wife in her acheivement in completing her medical assistant program. And in eighteen months completed my bachelors program with a GPA of 3.87.
