A lot went down for us in 2008 and we're relieved that we survived to see another day. Don't get me wrong, last year was full of blessings and a year we will not forget. However, I'm glad 2008 is behind us and I feel renewed for 2009. For starters, we finally shared with our friends and family that we're expecting. It was only seven months ago that I married my high school sweetheart and became a husband. Now in six short months, I'll become a father.

Our little bun in the oven.

One of my goals for 2009 is to provide everything I can for our mystery baby to grow up healthy in her/his baby mama's belly. Day dreaming of my baby's health brings back memories of all the nonsense my father advised as I was growing up. One advise my father would constantly share was to eat more of kimchee, spicy pickled cabbage, everyday to keep the doctor away. The way he shared it with me was as religious as the Greek father with Windex in My Big Fat Greek Wedding. If I ever broke a bone, he would probably have scolded me for not eating enough kimchee to strengthen my bones. I would wager my pinky that my father would've smeared my face with kimchee if I ever developed a serious face rash. A "Korean" remedy, but an honest advice to ensure my heath and longevity. I'll be keeping the kimchee jar closed until my baby starts developing a butt rash, but I'm glad to have had such unique fatherly advice to help me prepare to be Superman to my baby.

I have two goals I want to keep in 2009: to be the best daddy for our mystery baby and be an awesome husband to my baby (wife) carrying our baby.

To all my readers, I hope for prosperity for y'all in 2009.
