Life in the Fast Lane

As I sit home all day with little to do, I have some time to reflect on life maybe a little more then some of you. Although I am sure many of you are sitting in your office/cube day dreaming also. I was thinking about how quick our lives move. It seems like the KPB Classic was months ago. We have so many memories and things going on in our lives it is sometimes hard to really think about what matters in life.

What does? Right now for me it is my family and friends. You may ask shouldn't that always be what matters the most. Yes, but if you look back at high school and college you might remember that other things may have been a priority like sports, members of the opposite sex, etc. I love my family and they provide me with the joy and companionship that I need to get by on a day to day basis. When I wake up in the morning, I feel good when I look over and see my beautiful wife next to me and hear my son breathing over the baby monitor. I can not imagine not having that in a lifetime. Having the opportunity to shape and teach a little human is like no other opportunity you will get in your life. Any how quickly this happens. It seems like yesterday Alek was coming out of the womb and now he is turning into a little boy. So many parents say time goes so fast and indeed it does. It is really crazy.

My goal in this fast paced life where every one of us (friends and family) have so much going on is to find time to get together and enjoy this time together. For three years plus, Kath and I tried to get pregnant. Over that time we developed some special bonds with our friends and friend's kids. I want that same for Alek. I want my friends to be Alek's family. I want them to enjoy him as much as I enjoyed their kids. We all know if we don't time will have passed us by before we blink. I wish every month we could have a get together like the KPB Classic. Maybe we will have to organize a winter Bowling event or something like that. The KPB Bowling Classic. Sounds cool to me. I love bowling and I know many of you do too. Let me know what you guys think. It would be for fun and to get together.

That is my ramble for the day. Put a smile on your face!!!!
