Realization.

With the NFL strike looming, I was thinking about how I may be able to get my football fix by picking up the new Madden game when it comes out in August.


Then I realized something.

Our beautiful little girl will almost certainly be born before this game even comes out.

I guess despite the gorgeous growing tummy on my bride and the swift kicks and punches I periodically feel from the munchkin, it still doesn't feel quite as real to me as it does Sandi.

Then you have stupid, little realizations like I had today. The debut of this new football game is right around the corner.

And my baby will be here before then.

My baby.

How very, incredibly, spectacularly awesome.
