OK, so I’m a decent father and a terrible journal keeper. The good news is Jackson is still alive and well. The bad news is that I haven’t been keeping up with my bloggin as I promised to myself.
I have started many journals in the past, and I realized at the outset of my Daddy Experience journal that I would eventually fall off the map. This means that what I am writing will most likely not be read since most of my readers are spending energy on more reliable sources of information and humor.
On the one hand this is extremely positive since I am experiencing my son’s life through my own eyes, and I am so completely focused on him that I simply just don’t have time to write about the experience.
On the other hand, I am very good at justifying my downfalls, which is why my family has called me a champion of bullshit all these years.
Jackson is over eight months old now, and I am committed to getting more writing done….I hope.
