Heartbeat
We heard the heartbeat on Friday. It sounded to me a bit like the monster on Lost, but the doctor said it was entirely normal.
As a Dad, it doesn't seem very real so far. One of my friends at work, a man in his 50's with 2 grown kids talked to me this week about how special parenthood is. He said "You love your nieces and nephews, don't you? This won't even compare." I didn't get to meet Anna right away, and Debbie's nephews weren't mine when they were born, but I did get to hold Charlie when he came home from the hospital 14 years ago. I knew that moment exactly who he was, and loved him right away. I guess that memory puts what Carlton said in perspective and helps me look forward to October.
