objective/purpose

I am not a blogger. I do like to write, or at least I used to. From 2003 to 2006 I kept journals. An in depth look at past entries reveals that I mostly enjoyed documenting new adventures and travels. Trips were recorded with good detail and typically followed by an emotional connection to the experience. Ideas that were new and revolutionary to me at the time were recorded like they were modern revelation. I have found it difficult to continue with my typical journal entries. I realize that these scribbles were simply the result of a boy in his early twenties discovering life, and that they were not so different from any other wonder-lusting, Muir-loving, middle-class-vagabond, baby-boomer-offspring. My love for writing has been encompassed in the discovery of adventure. I feel the the documentation of discovering adventure has been thoroughly covered in my past writings. I have found a new passion.

This is a blog about my wife. In the year that we have been married I have grown to love my wife more than when I married her. While this new revelation my be cliche or ordinary to others, it is new and unique to me. This new kind of emotion is what forces me to this keyboard. I have heard that love can grow, but I have never experienced it until now.

Liv and I are expecting our first child. As I watch her take on this new, difficult, selfless challenge, it makes me love her more. All that Liv has done for me has created a new emotion that needs an outlet. This blog will follow the process of my lovely wife and our unborn child. Along the way I will write about what makes her great, and why I love her.
