Growing up Aisthorpe

Feels odd to be doing this, but here goes...I have lots of thoughts that I feel would be best sorted out through writing, no surprise since I majored in English in college.  "Writers need to write" as one of my old professors used to say.  Most of my thoughts will center around trying to be a great dad and husband with reflections of my own childhood thrown in.  As an educator, avid fisherman and runner I expect to have ideas to document on those as well.  Currently, Michelle (my wife) and I are expecting our third child to join our 4 and 2 year old.  We are very excited, and I look forward to meeting him or her in March.  One thing I am going to try to avoid is being political in my postings.  The idea is to focus on family and my ultimate goal is to find my voice as a writer and a dad.
