On December 6, 2007, I officially became a father Now A Father Little Torin and Evan were born, both healthy beautiful baby boys, and only 12 days before my birthday, and 14 days before my girlfriends! They came a few days before expected, but everyone's alright.

Thankfully the rest of the pieces for the nursery arrived the day before, and renovations were finished a week ago. I'm not good with hospitals either, but everything happened so fast that it only registered I was in a hospital after, I'm glad I was able to be with my girlfriend during.

I'd post pictures of them, because they're adorable, but my girlfriend is super-sensitive about posting pictures online, so I won't go against her wishes Now A Father It's scary but amazing to finally be a father now, and I know my girlfriend will make an amazing mother.

You have been given an amazing gift, x 2. Incredible. Adore everything about them and their mom and celebrate the gifts the babies bring. New lives, bring presence, patience, sleep deprivation... Oh never mind that one. Celebrate!!!!!!!!!! Congratulations
