The Cayago Corner

I

By Edgar Cayago
seem to be at a loss for what to write , even though the theme " Change " seems to be tailor-made for me . You see , about four months ago I became a new dad . It has been a reality shifting experience . For once in my life I have someone who needs me , to quote what ' shisface . But I think that because I ' m still in the thick of my adventure through early parenthood , I can ' t really step back and assess the terrain . I could regurgitate somethings my wife and I learned from our prenatal classes , from Youtube videos , or from the numerous audiobooks about parenting I ' ve listened to , but what would be the point in that ? I could easily just create a bibliography or list of links for you , BuzzFeed-like , but that wouldn ' t be much of a challenge for me as a writer , ne c ' est pas ? Of course , I don ' t think I can be really that creative right now , so I thought I ' d share a few ( I think ) funny moments from when my wife and I were prepping for our impending baby .
