My First Father's Day!
Oaklyn Skye Early
I'm a DAD!😁
On January 31st of this year my daughter Oaklyn was introduced to the world. She weighed in a healthy 8 lbs and measured 19.5 inches long. A life changing event for my girlfriend and I that has already brought more joy into our lives than we could have ever imagined.
Father's Day this Sunday is sure to bring a lot of emotions as we will be celebrating the beautiful little addition to our family while I also remember my father who passed away a year ago at the young age of 59. He was far from perfect, but he was my dad. A bond that I will cherish for the rest of my life.
My father earned a living with his hands as a carpenter and he really enjoyed drawing, which he used to help with his depression later in life. Those same drawing skills weren't passed down to me, but I like to believe that he inspired the creative outlets I do enjoy such as photography. I'd like to share with you some of his drawings that we discovered in his art portfolio after he passed away.

Life is a very precious gift that we often take for granted as we are consumed by the world that moves around us. Take some time this weekend to spend with those that you love. Enjoy your weekend everyone and Happy Father's Day!

Thanks I appreciate it! I've been telling myself the very same thing. I get so caught up in the moment that I forget to document those precious moments sometimes. I'm making a mental note right now!
