Birth-day!
October 31, 2005
The much anticipated climax of Peanut -- my journal of impending fatherhood -- arrives today . However the saga will continue in installments to come. Stay tuned.
A record of my exploration into all aspects of drawing, illustrated journaling, creativity, and the inspiring aspects of art. By the author of "Everyday Matters," "The Creative License", and "An Illustrated Life" and other books.

"Over the next few hours, her personality is peeled away like an onion, revealing more tough and spare versions of Patti I’ve never known."
I absolutely love that sentence. Particuarly the word "spare." Did it just come to you, or did you have to chew that one out?
Patti is a super hero. I would have dissolved into a puddle half way through the first contraction.

Congratulations!
The best segment you have written so far. So real and honest.
Hats off to Patti, what an unbelievable woman. I hope I can remain half as strong as her when that time comes for me.
Thanks again for sharing your story.
