I hope to be a good Dad.

[my2002lightning]

with a firm/fair hand with a proper measure of familial guidance and all that is good for children - including pre-school, encyclopedias, computers and various outdoor activities - not excluding the shooting / hunting sports. :D

I've been going through some old photos and they've been making me reflect on where I've been, where I am and where I'm (well we) are going.

Guess who this little feller below is, TALON! :) I suppose my proclivities towards firearms can be explained in the first photo.

That brand-new blue '71/'72 F-100 in the 2nd photo took Mom/Dad and I (as I was still in my tadpole-stage while Mom was carry me inside) to Yellow Stone N.P. and to the Canadian border. Dad didn't agree with Canada's firearm regulations and what would pass through customs.:rolleyes:

While at Yellow Stone, Mom stumbled on one of those wooden walk-ways going out over all those bubbling/steaming lakes of water.

They high-tailed it back to OK. for fear of my well-being with the 360 CID/auto. with an overhead camper in the bed.

Have a good evening tliss, 02BOLT, QDRHRSE and any other TALON Fathers. It's a helluva' experience.:)

So... you're saying the 360CID/auto was threatening your well-being in Yellow Stone[sic]??:nono:

Well, Elaine and I went in for the sonogram where we find out if we're having a baby boy or girl.:)

It's official, we're having a BOY - it was obvious, too.:evil :D knana I could easily see a strong beating heart, legs, arms, head, etc. All readings and measurements for both Elaine and Baby are tip-top, too.

We could also see he was restless in there. We would could get a good look at him one minute, and then Baby would move around and out of view. About 4-5am this morning, Baby kicked Elaine's sciatic (sp?) nerve running down her spine. She says it's like a big electric shock down both legs! She bolted out of bed in pain several times lately due to this.:o

Wow, I'm excited!:) Tom/tliss, you're right behind me, Dad. Better take good notes.:tu:

Ronald

[Tex Arcana]

If the kid was that active, means he's gonna be about as ADD as you are... :eek2:
