3/8/08 - 9:23pm...It's A Beautiful Thing!


It was just this moment a week ago when it seems like life was moving in slow motion. My beautiful wife and I were in the hospital because she hadn't been feeling too well. Actually, it's been since December 18Th that things took an interesting turn with her pregnancy. Bed rest was the recommendation. The due date May 20Th but that night would change destiny, I believe forever, for the best.

Never have I felt at a loss for words when the doctor said Mom and Dad...It's A Boy! At that moment time sped up so much that I saw the future. My future...his future...our future. Allan William Christopher Archer was born on March 8, 2008 at 9:23 pm. Three months early I guess you would to say the guy is ahead of the curve, "Ready For The World", or just plain ready to begin his journey. Whatever reason it may be I know that it was written by the good Lord.

I pray that he will continue to always be ahead and never behind. I hope he will be a leader and never a follower. My wish is that he will learn to treat others with respect, love and understanding as that is what help him succeed in life. Son, it is with great love and admiration that I say from the bottom of my heart, you and Mommy have changed my life and I love the both of you dearly. It's been a week to the day and the hour is now approaching so I say Happy Born day Allan William Christopher Archer. Always remember to keep your head up and a smile on your face.


In My Lifetime...June Archer
