Time Makes Things Ordinary

Things have settled a bit. Having Max, has picked me up off my feet and got me a little closer to who I am. I feel a bit more alive again. It feels good.

Having him has had its ups and downs. And I'm learning from them. He's still super active, sometimes a little all over the place. We're trying to make him a little more calm, a little more like us. Teaching him to enjoy the small pleasures in life and to cherish the good place he has in our home. I think it will take time, but he's getting there.

Knowing that I'm influencing him and my behavior is shaping who he is is a big responsibility. All it can do is make you have confidence. You have to have, because without it he would be wild. It also takes you back closer to who you are. Because if you're not yourself, you're not confidence.

That's where I am at right now. It feels good. It feel right. It feels like the next step forward.
