Why I Blog

I wondered today whether I'll be as expressive with Elijah when he is older.  In some ways I love the relationship we have right now that I don't want him to grow up.  But that would just be silly.  He's going to make a wonderful, wonderful adult and it would be a crime for the world not to know him as a man.

Nevertheless, after he passes a certain age, I'll bet he won't be that interested (at least outwardly) in how I feel about him; and around that same time, I'll probably get hesistant about expressing my love for him too.  Well....it's largely because I know that time is coming that I want to blog about him as much as I can now.  I hope that I'm wrong and that in some way I'll be able to let him know that I love him and he'll be interested.  But even if that's not possible, I hope that he'll be able to read this blog and know how much his dad cherishes every moment with him.
