Date: December 7th 2008

While I was roaming around East Africa for work, I was often asked why my visit was so short, only two weeks. When I explained that my wife was nine months pregnant and due any day, everyone understood. And told me to hurry.

• I felt a bit closer to home when I crossed into the northern hemisphere in western Kenya: http://www.bbwindow.com/2008/kenya/
• In Uganda, the topics of children lead me to a great discussion on wedding customs: http://www.bbwindow.com/2008/uganda/
• The round of Bottle Cap Golf in Rwanda helped calm my nerves for the big day: http://www.bbwindow.com/2008/rwanda/

The big day came right on time, two weeks after my return. Amy's water broke on Friday night and by Saturday morning, Amy blessed me with the greatest gift, fatherhood. Now if you'll excuse me, I have a little one to take care of. You can enjoy more of the event here: http://www.bbwindow.com/2008/america/hanalei_stockard_vota.html
