Athena

Athena is my goddaughter. Today I spent most of my day watching her for my best friend. I love her with every fiber of my being. She is the cutest, funniest kid ever. Just under 2 years old and ran right up to me and said "I LOVE YOU SEAN!" Nothing makes me feel better in the world.

the funny part is I was with a girl who shall not be name long ago, she is my ex-fiance. She had me convinced that we should never have kids and kids are just bad news. I think I just went with it because I was in love and people do stupid stuff when they're in love. Our relationship got cut short by her of course, no real reason, I think i might have gotten too clingy. Shit happens. But anyway, the point is that I was thoroughly convinced I didn't want kids until my best friend had her daughter and made me godfather, turned my entire outlook around. I absolutely want the hardships and the rewards that come with being a parent. Now when, with who, and wether or not I will adopt is still up in the air. One thing is certain though, I want a kid.

  1. Really nice thoughtful post man, I was in the same situation being convinced that kids were wrong to have. But as I get older I find myself wanting to finish school, get a career and have a family.

  3. I had a revelation today. I never want to have kids because I love watching movies uninterrupted too much.
