In about one week, give or take a couple days, my wife, Kristina, and I will become parents for the first time. We have chosen to wait until the big day to find out the sex of our baby. Being a father is something I have wanted for many years and having grandchildren is something that my parents have wanted for a lot longer. A very close friend of mine loves to say, that we have to kiss a lot of frogs before finding a princess. When I met my wife our relationship was doomed from the start and we both never gave it a chance to last more than a month, but like the little train engine that just kept keeping on our relationship has continued to move forward and has surprised us both. There are mornings when I wake up before Kristina and look over at her thinking how did I get so lucky, I am the happiest I've been in years, I am experiencing a deep felt love that I never knew existed and I will very soon have my dreams come true in the shape of a healthy bouncing bundle of joy. God willing!As a younger man I would always quietly ridicule men who publicly gushed their feelings of love and emotion about their wives and girlfriends. Under my breath I would joke that the guy had just, "dropped his nuts" and I would hope that he did not forget to pick them up before he left as he may need his Nuts and may not be able to find them later!Now it would seem the shoe is on the other foot and I am that gushing fool, hang on a sec I just need to keep an eye on my Nuts! But for the record dropping your nuts feels great, I have finally made that true connection with someone very special.To my darling wife who has helped me get though one of the darkest times in my life, your total love and support has nurtured me back to health and your patience and guidance has helped in the creation of Bula Balls!Love you till the end. xx.
