Becoming a father was the best thing that has ever happened to me in my life. It is such a special feeling living for someone else and not just yourself, knowing that your sole duties in life are now to love, provide, teach, mentor, and discipline. I always hear people say “ Im don 't think I 'm ready to be a parent.” and to be honest, I do not think anyone is ready to be a parent. I can still remember like it was yesterday the day my son was born. The feelings leading up to the day he was born were the most nerve racking days of my life.
On August 27th, 2015 the due date arrived. My wife and I sat at home expecting our son at any moment along with my mother who was visiting us and also there to help and support us with our new parental …show more content…
Back contractions began to hit my wife really bad almost 20 minutes into the movie and not knowing what was really happening while also trying to lose the feeling of being impatient we sat through the entire movie getting though it while i rubbed my wives back. I have never seen her in this much pain before and it was a very scary moment. Burning and stabbing pains in my wives lower back continued through out the night and it wasn 't until we were getting into bed and my wife was restless in bed with so much pain that i realized that it was only the beginning of a very long night and also the beginning to a new chapter in our life.

Relief was found when my son Mason came to this world healthy and amazing, but also came nerves and being scared. I was scared like i have never been before. I kept asking myself if I could handle this, if I knew what was going on, and if I even knew how to change a diaper. None of these things I was sure of and sometimes I 'm still not sure if i know what I 'm doing.
Since the first day of becoming a father I have asked myself if I 'm ready. I have found that I 'm not and i don 't think i ever will be ready, because of the fact that my son will not be the same person from one month to the next. He will grow bigger and like the things he didn 't like before and hate the things he used to love. I have found that there is no real way to know if you 're actually ready to become a parent, but to just give your all give your child as much love as possible with every second you have with them so that you can leave a loving and lasting impression on them
