At 2:38 PM, possibly 2:38 PM, I became a father and my wife became a mother. We named her Aniela. She's very precious and attentive. She came to us from a belly that we grew accustomed to and now that she's here it feels so natural, like she's been with us the whole time. Maybe because she doesn't talk much just like before, but she makes the sweetest little grunts. The best thing in the world is seeing her smile, and it's so funny what it takes to make that happen. A little squeeze on the cheeks and a high pitched sound. It could be so brief, but it sends me flying.
