Planning Keylee's First Birthday.

My greatest fears of being a father came to realization on May 9, 2008, the day Keylee Jazel Ball was born. I was probably more scared then her and I was already here for 18years. Isn't that ironic? My feelings quickly changed when she grabbed my finger and looked at me, as if "EVERYTHING" was OK. She would give me this look like -Dad, I am here now and where do we go from here? The rest came naturally. Men are made to be protectors of our children. When we step away from that, we are acting contrary to our nature and are taking a first-class ticket to our own self-destruction. Me personally I love fatherhood and wouldn't go back in time for anything, it just fits me like a pair of new kicks :-)

My daughter taught me everything I know about being a father. I learned from her that no matter what is in your past, your children are right here in your present moment, looking up at you, calling you "DADDY" needing you and you needing them.

The key to being a successful dad is a balanced mind, body, and soul. The demands will knock the strongest, richest, most handsome cat off his feet. My daughter expresses total loyalty to my heart, keeps it warm . . .and breaks it at the same time (Laughing Out Loud).

My daughter Keylee & I bond like no other father and daughter I've seen thus far, we're like magnets attracted by one heart, sometimes we sit up all night watching movies, laughing, cuddling, even staring each other to sleep. She is the limelight of L I F E. Shocked, that on this very day last year my beautiful daughter was just being born. Now she has become so alert over this year which will eventually become a drastic change for me but I'm pretty sure i will adapt.

In conclusion to this all it is now 12:00AM May 9, 2009 and my daughter is officially 1 years old, I'm sitting here reminiscing over all the good times we've had. She is laying here next to me while I'm typing this blog for her, "HOW MANY FATHERS ACTUALLY HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO SAY SO????? ". I've been here since day one and I'm never going anywhere we are stuck with each other with the life sentence, she is my best friend, as well as my beautiful daughter, she is someone who looks up too me for any and everything possible and that will never STOP!

DADDY LOVES YOU KEYLEE!!!!!!!!!!

-Goodnight World until we shall meet tomorrow to celebrate such a wonderful birthday-
