September 7, 2017 By Rob Gavin - 9 Comments

Eight weeks ago, Dessa arrived, turning our family of two into a family of three. And, I must say, after eight weeks, I'm slowly getting the hang of this whole fatherhood thing. Some parts, like the late night feedings, were expected. Others were not things I anticipated, like … [Read more...]

How Dessa Marie Got Her Name
