When Andrea and I got married, we decided to start independently. We moved out of our parents’ places, took all our things and settled far far away from the world we grew up with. It was, to say the least, a nerve-wracking change for both of us. And it took us the whole year to adjust to our situation.

Now, a year and a month later, we’re again faced with a new and more if not equally challenging change… being parents, because last January 15, at exactly 1:40 pm, Andrea gave birth to our little angel, Mateo Alexander.

If if took me a great deal of patience, humility and self-control to become a husband, then I could just imagine what it would take to become a dad. But I’m not scared. I’m not worried at all because if being a husband gave me so much happiness, you can just guess how ecstatic I am to be a dad.
