One year ago today I joined Steemit.
11611 posts and 6169 followers in 365 days. 100% organically.
I started drafting an inspiring post last week in anticipation of my one year Steemitversary Friday June 15, but something big happened.
My oldest son called me on Wednesday evening, telling me he was rushing to the hospital. He's expecting his first child and Shy was having complications.
I met them at the hospital soon after they arrived and 26 hours later my lil man was the proud and protective Daddy to his own lil man, and I am now a proud Nonnina š
Keyoni Rose was born Friday June 15 at 1:21 am. He is 9 pounds 2.9 ounces and 20.75 inches long.
Happy Birth Day Keyoni Rose š
His Daddy at the same age
They both have large hands. The hospital staff told me my son would play basketball with paws like that. He does, and is awesome-dunking before he was 16.
I thought my son was a large baby, especially given the fact that I'm 5 foot 2 and a bit over 100 pounds. My boy was 23 inches long but "only" 8 pounds 6 oz! He's now 6' 4".
John's furrowed brow in his infant photo is not an indication of temperament, lol, as he is the most happy go lucky guy I know :)
My kitten had a kitten :)

My oldest son and Daddy to be, me, and my next oldest son and anxious Uncle to be, in the hospital day 2 of labor. You can't tell we haven't slept, can you?
Everyone is doing extremely well, minus a touch of exhaustion :)
My Nipote (Italian for grandson) was born on National Smile Power Day. How awesome is that? I don't think anything brings a smile more powerfully than a baby :). It's the perfect holiday for lil Key to have as a birthday!
I just wanted to share this wonderful event with my awesome Steemit family :)
I love you guys!
Now for some much needed sleep :)
I appreciate your support :)
