[Personal Project] – Samuel – Newborn

Thump thump thump thump thump. Heavy footsteps down the hall.

Yaaaawwwwn.

“Good morning Lucas”

“Come and play trains, Dad”

It was starting out like any other morning.

Keep it normal. Keep it normal.

Breakfast. Toast.
“Jam and peanut butter please Dad”.
“Come on Dad. Lets build tracks”
“Sure.”

Keep it normal. Keep it normal.

“Come on Mister. Lets get dressed, it’s time for childcare.”
“Are we going in your car Dad?”
“Sure are!”

Keep it normal. Keep it normal.

Except that today would be anything but normal.

Today our family of three would become a family of four.

And so became another delicate balance – living the event, enjoying the experience, capturing the moments. Being part of the story at the same time as telling the story. But I wouldn’t change it for the world.
