Troy Robert Kahaku Justus



Anyone who doesn't believe in love at first sight has never looked upon their own child for the first time...


That is a quote by me, to my wife, as we both gazed upon our little boy for the first time. What a feeling! What a rush! What the heck were we thinking? Adults are parents. Grown ups raise children. We are The JenBob...we're just kids!

Well I can vouch that man knows no more maturing experience than being a parent. For the first two weeks we went every day to the hospital NICU where he had to improve and grow before coming home to us. Every day we went to the hospital to feed and hold him. They gave us classes on infant CPR, childcare, and basically gave us an edge that most natural parents will never get.

Oh yeah-- did I mention that we adopted him? Yes, two awesome people had an awesome baby, and they chose us to raise that child. Now we are parents to this perfect bundle of wisdom. Teach your parents well, Troy Robert Kahaku Justus.
