Last week I was talking to one of my junior sailors who himself is a proud father of two. He told me, "...having a son is like having a best friend, but a daughter...she is my heart." After this past weekend I now know what he was talking about. There is just something about a bond between a father and daughter that is beyond description so I will let the pictures do the talking...enjoy!
It may seem that Baby Maya was the main event, but I also spent some quality time with Maxwell. I was promptly reintroduced to my fatherly responsibilities including diaper duty, culinary duty, and clothing detail (subtle military terminology...sorry). But through those simple "labors of love" I was quickly reminded how blessed I am to have such a beautiful son.

Got Milk?And where would I be without my better half. Behind this gentle, sweet, kind soul is the toughness and strength that surpasses even the most fearless soldier. Hoorah honey!
