Well a little different thread lets talk about a memorable moment that has happened to you while you were married or while you were dating?

Lets see my most memerable moment...so far!

Well my daughter was still a newborn and i was still very much overwhelmed with the whole daddy/responsibility thing. At first I found myself very distant and just not emotionally ready in my opinion to accept all the responsibility of fatherhood. I was newly married and now I have a newborn around the house it was very hard at first until..I took Natalie to the Dr. to get her first set of shots, my wife had to work so I decided to take her myself. I remember going into the office and as the nurse was getting ready for the shots she said, daddy this is going to be a little emotional on you (I was like I'm not the one getting the shot) well Natalie had to get 4 shots 2 on each thigh after it was done she started to cry in a very painful voice. I just remember picking her up to hold her and I literally felt her pain, she was only 2 months old and I just felt her holding on tight to me with her little hands like she knew I was going to make her feel better, I sat there for a good 10 minutes just holding her and realizing that she is a part of me, and she needed me. From that very brief moment on it HIT me, I was her daddy it was that moment when I totally accepted all the responsibility and the challenge of being a father. I know it sounds silly but sometimes it is these moments when you see the big picture. good stuff!!
