This blog will chronicle the journey between a new father and his daughter. It will highlight the ups and the downs, and all the lessons learned. It is my prayer that "C.J. and Me" will be an inspiration to all that the bond between father and daughter can be strong. It will also show the world that there are REAL men who help develop stellar women who will go on and shake up the world. Enjoy the journey and look daily to see what new and exciting things are going on in our lives!

Too Long
When October has passed hopefully things will get back to normal. Tonight things were abnormal. CJ decided that she wanted to act out in a dining facility. She is patterning her behavior after what she is seeing at the sitter and neither Mommy or Daddy is pleased. She slammed her hand on the table and she through some of her food. Mommy put her in check right then and there. Then Daddy spoke to CJ very sternly outside of the establishment. If it is one thing Daddy will not tolerate, that is a child acting out. We are trying to help her understand that what she does is not OK by holding her accountable for her actions. We pray she will begin to get it sooner than later. Since the last time I wrote CJ continues to grow and to be more assertive. She still has a great personality but this mean streak has to go.

Sleeping Daddy
For the past two nights Daddy has come home and fell asleep really early. He has been really tired so the sleep has helped. so CJ is still not adjusting well with the sitter. In the mornings both Daddy and Mommy have a difficult time with leaving because she does not seem to be pleased.

Filled
Right now Daddy is so filled he doesn't know what to do. The word was so on poin tonight it has him wide awake. Daddy thnaks God for giving him dominion over a garden that is in order. For providing the best helpmate possible to enjoy the garden with. he thanks God for the harvest from the garden. Daddy simply wants to give God the praise because his will is what governs the garden.
The word hit home and Daddy is proud to say that he is the King of his garden and the Queen and Princess support and follow his lead. As long as Daddy is in the will of God the garden is untouchable!
CJ and Mommy are sleeping and another week of Daddy being away more than home is over but this to shall pass.

Hurry Up!
The funniest thing happened today. Everyone knows how Mommy is very selective with regard to the treats CJ gets. So we arrive at the yellow house as the great grandchildren have named it. When we come in CJ walks into the kitchen and sees Briyanna with an ice pop. So like a good big cousin would, Briyanna let CJ have some. So of course everyone in the kitchen laughed because we knew if Mommy saw her, she may not be pleased. So once Briyanna understood the situation CJ had come back for more. Briyanna obliges but this time she tells her to hurry up, lol! Just about then Mommy came in. However CJ left out because the ice pop left out. That was the funny moment of Daddy's day. He needed a laugh too!

SMH, Work!
So I sit here with a stuffy head and major pain in my sinuses. CJ is is sleeping and Mommy is out on the living room couch. To assist with easing the pain Daddy has CJ's humidifier on full blast. Daddy is running on low fuel and his body is beginning to let him know he needs a break. Daddy is trying to listen but duty calls. Another week of being on the rode four out of five nights. Another night of work and church. Daddy had to prepare a lesson as well as study for his examination coming up soon. The car needs brakes so Daddy had to switch cars with his brother to get that done. Daddy still needs to read through resume's and prepare for two events at work. He will be going away next week but that trip will be filled with learning. Daddy works on this Sunday and has a full day Saturday. Where will he find his rest? Does CJ understand why Daddy goes so much? How does Mommy really feel? She is always supportive but does she really just want to chain him down? Does she feel overwhelmed?
Folks tonight Daddy taught about faith. Daddy has full confidence that God will see him through this very hectic stint of life. Not only that, Daddy will be stronger and healthier as a result. Daddy and Mommy are dealing with CJ developing emotions. We knew she always had them but CJ is a wreck in the mornings. So much so we are thinking about moving CJ to another sitter. Nothing against the one we use now but for some reason the pairing is not clicking for CJ. The one thing Mommy and Daddy usual agree on is CJ's best interest. Daddy loves his Princess and wants her to have what she needs in life to be successful and if she knows some things at two then Daddy needs to plan accordingly.
Continue to pray for our family folks. God is not through with us yet. He is our leader and we love him dearly. He still has so much in store for us that will continue to come out for the masses to see.
