OLIVIA

Well at least not in most pictures. Liv, the truth is that your daddy is fussy about pictures.

I actually love being in the frame, but the consequence of being fussy is that I’m just not seen a lot.

It’s the dorky stuff like light, shadow, composition, and framing that daddy doesn’t trust others to capture “correctly” enough. So daddy takes most of the pictures.

Your mom doesn’t seem to mind.

I hope you don’t mind either. After all, the point of this blog is to capture bits of your upcoming life.

But this leads into one of the most important lessons that we are going to have together, and it starts before you’re born…

Daddy always loves you.

…Even when you can’t see him …Even when he’s not around — though he’ll be around as long as the Good Lord lets.

…Maybe I’ll be at work. Maybe I’ll be on a trip. Maybe you’re going to be in school. Maybe you’ll be taking a nap, or you’re with mommy. Maybe you’ll be too little to understand. Maybe you’ll be all grown with responsibilities of your own.

Doesn’t matter when during you’re life, and like the pictures, it doesn’t matter whether you can see me or not – Daddy always loves you.
