Baby Philpott

One of my best friends Mike had a son today. I am so excited for him and the mother. The baby was born 6 lb 8 oz via C-section and is healthy. It is very weird to think of my friends being parents. I now have almost a half dozen that I was very close with in school that are married and many of them have kids.

 

I can see the cycle of life repeating itself from when I was a kid. Now my friends will be the little league coaches, the chaperones, and the mentors. They will have the “cool houses” to play at, and the stories that all the other kids wish their dads and moms had. Life is beautiful in that way.

 

I’m fairy nostalgic today as I often am when a life change happens. The split with Rio has me thinking of a lot of my past and how much life changes. I can’t believe that in 5 weeks I turn 27. I can’t imagine what I will feel like when I’m 57. I hope I see 107. The weather in Central Florida is good today. It is summertime here and that means low 90s, humid as hell and thunderstorms in the afternoon.

 

I am planning a vacation right now to go to Ohio this fall. I always return from vacations with a new respect for life and drive to do things better. Being a better person is one of the biggest reasons I moved to Orlando.
