Wow, it's been four months since my last Nostr Note. I missed you guys. Thank you for all the prayers; my daughter got out a couple of days after this post π. Life's been a beautiful whirlwind since. My daughter is beautiful, happy, and healthy. I am truly blessed. I can see what they mean when they say "it takes a village to raise a child." It took some struggling at first, but we are getting the hang of this parent thing and finally got some good routines.

Nostr, what have I missed? I've been lurking at times but not enough to stay on top of stuff. The latest
@CITADEL DISPATCH @ODELL with
@Alex Gleason got me excited. Has anyone made an Elon mirror account on Nostr yet? I might do it if it hasn't been done yet. What else has been built or improved on in the last four months I should check out? Stay humble, stack sats, and make babies π

Thank you for all the prayers and love. Honestly, Nostr, there is no second best π. The good news is that my baby girl is finally breathing on her own. My wife finally got to hold her yesterday. Everything is progressing well, and maybe she can finally come home soon! It's been a long couple of weeks. The bad news is that she failed her hearing test, which got us a little worried, but I read that it's common for premature babies to fail their initial test. We will remain positive. Thank you again for all the prayers and love, it really lifted our spirits. Love you all πππ«π«

@Peter McCormark I think I got it to work
I don't remember is this your first?
Yeah babies do consume time, but man is it worth it to see your kids grow. I see friends and family without kids and I don't envy their life at all.
Embrace the loss of free time my friend and enjoy that #plebdad life
Yea it's my first. I am new to all of this but yea a lot of my friends from the past still don't have kids and we are in our mid thirties. It's a very different life. Definitely has given life a lot more meaning. #plebdad life π€
That's when we started as well. Tough time for age but the wisdom and experience you have from that age more than makes up for it. Congratulations again to both of y'all. Very cute baby. Enjoy it all, even the crappy times. Looking back on it all the cliches are true lol.
Keep trying zap you keep getting this. It's from coinos not sure if issue in my end or yours.
Appreciate you! Yea I am way more mature now. If I had a baby in my mid twenties it would of been a beautiful mess π. God bless. I hope yours are all well! I'll do my best to live in the moment. Already noticed how much bigger she already got and was amazed. Time flying.
Uh-oh, something happened on the
@ZEUS side because my custom address also stopped working.

Man don't worry about the zaps. Put it towards your families future good sir.
I will say from my POV as a dad it became wayyyyyy more fun when mine started to walk. That's when the real adventure begins now is bonding time though. I have enjoyed each life stage even the aggravating points. Mine are still under 12 so no telling what that's going to be like. They have brought so much hope and joy back to me. I was and still a bit deeply cynical but with them I was able to see the joy, wonder and magic of the world again.
Same for me if I had been in my 20s with mine. Yes, she will shoot up and change just as fast as weeds. Pay attention to the cliches you use as she grows and laugh at it.
I checked with Zeus and custom addresses are a premium feature now.
I didnβt see the post a few days ago. π

That's funny you said that. I literally told my wife the other day that I couldn't wait for her to start running around. Bonding time is important too. My wife had to get a surgery a month after birth so it was just me and baby girl for a couple weeks. Threw me right into the fire but a lot of bonding and learning came from it. Happy to hear they have brought you a lot of hope and joy back into life. Enjoy it, they still love you! That teenager stage now is around the corner where they start hating everything π. Appreciate you #plebdads π€ Tried to zap you again and failed π’
This is wonderful, so happy to see it! Lean on your fellow dad-friends and God bless you and your family!
Thank you π
Beautiful !
And congratulations for becoming one of us, caring parents, that do their best, including many mistakesβ¦
Thank you π
Ivan buddy π«π i've been thinking about you and your family for the last few weeks, especially when my daughter was born! great to hear that the little one is doing well!!!
Congrats on your daughter! Hope your family is doing well. Girl dads π€
