To quote Ferris Bueller: ‘life comes at you pretty fast. If you don’t stop and look around once in a while, you might miss it’.

Life certainly has done that. Over two years ago, my partner and I suffered heartbreak with a miscarriage. We hadn’t been trying for children, but we felt blessed all the same, before tragedy struck us both. At the end of last year, we got engaged and moved into our first home together. Within a month, we found out that we were having another baby.

Today, I am proud to say that our first child was born: a daughter coming in at 7lb 4oz. I am home after a long day, whilst my fiancée is in the hospital with our daughter. Born at 4:37 this morning. I am exhausted, but the proudest man in the world right now.

For this reason, I may not be uploading as often and will be taking some time out to be with my new daughter and my fiancé. Having my step son to also care for, so there’s that too. Parenthood, eh?
