I’m a blackbelt father now!

“Where are the sunday shortcuts?”, “Where are the new articles?” All valid questions…but I had something far far far more important to do the last couple of weeks. And the coming years. Me and my girlfriend Helie are very happy with our new daughter Tess. Her full name is Tess Moana Meeuwsen. Her middle name Moana is the Maori word for “ocean” or as they say “big blue surface”. We have a weakness for New Zealand and the colour of the ocean back there so that’s why we named here Moana. We also made a website for her. Ofcourse it’s a weblog. It’s all in dutch, but you can check out some of the photos we made of Tess and our new happy family. Right now, Tess is sleeping so I have some time for my own work and check some stuff online. I have 10 days off so plenty of time to get used to my new life as a loving father. I am very pleased to already see some of the GTD principles coming back in the way I take care of Tess. We write stuff down very quick so we don’t forget new diapers, or mailing some government-issue about the birth. Also, I keep a notebook (yes, a Moleskine) to write little stuff down we learn while raising and caring Tess. I hope I find the will and the time to keep this up and bring on some of the thoughts and principles of GTD to little Tess. Makes a well-cleaned house I hope :-)
