Firsts. Lasts.

He came to us.

Oliver Daniel Waire.

8.5 lbs.

22 inches long.

 

The road here wasn’t easy.

I still sit and stare and admire the strength of Sara.

…and my love for her continues to swell.

 

Life.

Creating it is something else.

We’re fortunate.

Appreciative.

…and excited for the adventures that await us as a family of 5.

 

In the rare quiet moments that find me,

I let it all soak in.

Still surreal in some ways.

Familiar.

Comfortable.

Where we’re supposed to be.

Right here.

Right now.

Together.

 

…and I watch our little man grow and take all of his firsts alongside his siblings,

…and I reflect on how these same moments will also mark lasts.
