With the baby due Wednesday morning, I’m getting a lot of the typical questions:

Are you excited to be a Dad? Is everything ready for baby? Do you need anything? How are you feeling?

How am I feeling? I don’t know.

That’s the truth as I know it.

I guess there’s just a lot wrapped up in all of this.

On the one hand I’m worried about Tara. She’s the one in the hospital, she’s the one having to go through the surgery, she’s the one with the Mother on the other side of the country.  So I worry.

On the other hand, I’m scared for Liams health. He’ll be early, by more than a few weeks, and there can be a whole host of complications there.

Yet on another hand(I think I’m borrowing some hands now) I want to stay positive about everything. They tell us to always be positive around Liam when he’s in the special care nursery, and I want to be positive around Tara as much as possible to keep her positive.

So how am I feeling? I still don’t know, and I won’t really know until I get to see and hold him. Then, I’m sure, I’ll be a wreck 🙂
