Wow! Lot’s of stuff to cover here. Lot’s of stuff has happened and is happening and will continue happening.
First things first: Tricia, my wonderful, beautiful, awesome and incredible wife is PREGNANT!!! Holy crap!!! Most of you reading this have probably already heard this, but it bears repeating again and again: we’re going to be parents!!! Tricia’s gonna be a mommy!!! I’m going to be a daddy!!! I could write a whole, whole lot about all this…but not here! In the future, there will be posts about things that impact us here, but I will leave most of the blogging about this whole parenthood adventure to a different place.
Which is the second thing to cover. There is a new blog I’ve started that is everything Baby Payne and all our adventures along the way, colorfully cataloged for your reading pleasure. However, my greatest hope for this site is that it might become a place where parents of all ages feel free to comment, leaving their wisdom for us and other new, ignorant, and green parents who follow after. I hope it becomes a great resource! Here’s the link to it (and it’s in the sidebar over there, too!):

There is a high probability that it will move to a better domain in the near future, but I’ve done what I can so far and hope you enjoy it!
The third, and last thing I want to cover is my short absence that will follow this post. I’ll leave room for one more possible post before Tuesday night, but I won’t promise one, either. As a community, our church is partaking in the Lenten season. As a part of that, I desire to draw closer to our great God by giving up some things each week during this time. This week I’ve decided to put aside all social media and spend more time alone with Him. What that means is no Facebook, no Twitter, and probably the most difficult, no blogging. I must say, however, I’ve been faithfully posting three article per week for months and the idea of a bit of a rest sounds pretty nice. My hope is that I’ll recharge and reconnect, coming back stronger from this time off. Please keep up with the new blog, though. I will write there if new things come up!
So, I leave you with that for the next week. My short hiatus starts Wednesday morning, so I’ll be ready to write once again the following Wednesday. I look forward to both the rest and the restart. See you all then…
