Hello everyone. Sorry I have not been at school all week, but on Monday morning i became a daddy! It has been an awesome, busy, tiring week. I have learned a lot about what my own parents went through (three times) when I and my siblings were born. I have developed an even greater respect for them.

My beautiful daughter, Annelise Rae Richardson, was born at 5:06 AM on Monday, September 20th. She came 27 days early, but weighed a healthy 5 pounds, 13 ounces. She is small, but doctors say she is a healthy and nearly perfect baby girl. We are truely blessed! Her mother and my wife, Jayme, is doing great. She was awesome through the process and like my parents, has gained even more respect from me! I love my girls soooooooo much!

See you all Monday
