So I'm cleaning up the kitchen today while Charlie is taking an early afternoon nap, and I flip the TV to VH-1, and the show "Scott Baio is 46 and Having a Baby." Sometimes, it's fun to see your childhood idols in their normal everyday lives.
This particular episode is THE episode to catch from the whole season. His wife giving birth to their daughter. I always get sucked into watching baby birthing shows now. Sometimes, my DVR is even set to record "Bringing Baby Home" on TLC. Let's keep that between us, okay?
So anyway, Scott Baio freaks out throughout the episode. His wife is in labor overnight, and struggling to deliver the baby naturally and they finally decide to opt for a C-section.
There are tons of still photos from the delivery, and as regular readers of my blog probably know already, I couldn't stop my tears from streaming. I can still feel the emotions I had when Charlie was born.
If you're not familiar with the show, Scott Baio narrates throughout, and capped off this episode by saying something like, "The crippling fear I felt about being a father is no where near as powerful as the unconditional love I felt for my daughter the first time I held her." It was a nearly perfect way to express what most Dads go through in the delivery room.
All I can say is "Wa wa wa..."
