Well, she went through her pregnancy, I went to all the appointments and check ups’, everything that anyone else would have done. As time went on, and the months passed I just kept getting more excited, I felt myself maturing, and my feelings with Jessica got even stronger. No longer did it feel like we were just Boyfrield and Girlfriend, but yet a team.

The first time she thought her water broke, I actually kept my cool, I did a lot of reading to know what was going to happen, and how it was going to happen. I knew that she wasen’t close to having the baby yet, so I was in no real rush. We were at my buddies house sitting around watching movies, and all of a sudden “Justin! I think my water broke!” So she runs to the bathroom, I get my car keys and help her to the car after she gets out of the bathroom.

That wasn’t when though, her water didn’t break as we found out later after she called the Doctor.

A few days later, it happens again, this time, it’s the real deal. On January 6nd of 2009 her water breaks and we drive out to the hospital making sure I have everything that she wants and that she needs. We get out there and we wait, hours and hours, I ended up sleeping on the floor for awhile. I stayed the entire time, I waited 9 Months to see my son and I wasn’t going to miss it for the world.

They ended up inducing her labor with some chemical through the IV. I waited next to her for hours, watching the baby monitor show the contractions coming close and closer together, getting bigger at the same time. Then Finally it was time.

When she was getting close I felt horrible, she was in so much pain, and all I thought was how much of it was my fault, which is all of it. All she was doing was crying and yelling for her mom, who was also by her side the entire time with me.

At 8:07PM Eastern Time, on January 7th 2009 I saw the head of my son pop out, I watched as his entire body was pushed out, I broke out into tears as I cut his imbilical cord. It was a moment that changed my entire life, it made me feel like I was a entirely different person, I was now a Father to another human being. They layed him on top of her, then they passed him to me, I didn’t know what to feel when I looked into my sons eyes, to know they he was my flesh and blood, and I was there to take care of him for the rest of my life.

Now we have a healthy baby boy of 3 months as of the 7th. I went from living with my mom to getting my very own apartment and paying my own rent and bills. Having my son, who we named Kanin, has been the best experince I have ever had in my life. It outranks any drug on earth, any time of natural ectasy that a person can experince, and time of emotion it can outstand.

There you have it, the story of me, my love, and my son, in short form of course!
