Maybe I was born to hold you in these arms

Title? Check. Design? Check. Start date? Check.

That was me, five months ago. The idea? A blog dedicated to my (yet to be) newborn son documenting his day-to-day journey and the songs that define it. "Brilliant," I thought to myself. Armed with a potent idea and the plan to execute it, I came home and announced it to my less-than-enthused wife. "Do you really think that you'll have enough time to juggle a job, fatherhood and blog daily? How about a post a month? Maybe that would be more realistic." "This isn't about realistic," I said, "It's about groundbreaking!"

Which pretty much brings us up to date. Oli, you are almost four months old and your mother is much smarter than I am. And with that, here is your first blog post!
