My Godson
I’m so honored and flattered (and suprised) to announce that I’m the Godmother of an amazing friend’s new baby boy, Douglas Thomas Sibert. Shannon and I became friends in 1st grade and have never been out of touch since. She’s the friend I’ve had the longest and among the people I think about first when important things happen. I am so proud of who she’s become, who she’s married and how she’s raised her daughter, Emily. It’s a great family and I couldn’t have planned her life better for her if I tried.
I meet the little one next Sunday and see Shannon for the first time in almost 2 years. I can’t wait to see how Emily has changed and hug the family that’s always been there for me…
I know I’m not the perfect role model and I know I’ve lost touch with my catholic background, but I’m confident that the values Shannon and I share go beyond what can be learned in a sermon… or maybe I’m just justifying her decision. Either way, I’m happy
