How is Daddy formed?

Well, that's the big question, isn't it? And one that's rarely asked.

Hitting the big 4-0 today (lordy, lordy!) and on a Friday the 13th... sweet! So, about halfway done, or perhaps only a third, depending on the measure one uses, and it's been a good trip so far and many miles to go; I'd love to set a record, though I'd settle for a view of how Vinge's visions work out, or at least the end of Martin's series. *laugh*

Forty, and looking to become a father for the first time; D's about half-way through the preliminary round, before the big event, lots of plannng and prepping and possibilities... exciting times, indeed! I'm glad we've got some experienced kith and kin to help us out with this. And I'm really glad about how great D is with all this... amazing times with an amazing woman. (She's not reading this, so no embarrassment!)

My dad was getting ready to send us kids out of the nest at this age and I've barely begun gathering sticks and string to put things together... lots of cat hair to make things soft and warm though, so no worries there, just need a few more power tools and some glue.

Got to shape myself up too, don't want to be the example of what not to do for the Wee One, or "Babby" as we're calling her or him while still in utero. So, this might be my last weekend of gorging on buffet and BBQ; I'm going to make the most of it and then we'll see how watch the process of how is Daddy formed...
