The Next Face of Gerber?

I think we may have the cutest baby in the world. Okay, maybe I'm a little bit biased because I'm his father. But I can't help it that my ego gets a little boost when others tell us how cute our baby Daniel is.

One of our good friends sent us a link to a [baby] modeling company where you submit some photos and they'll get back to you if they select your baby for a photo shoot. Just for kicks, Tary sent in a pair of photos. To our surprise, late last week we received a call that they were interested in using Daniel for a bathtub shoot. They said they'd call back early this week if they wanted to proceed. Well, we got a confirmation this morning. Our little Danny is going to be a model!

This definitely will be a unique and interesting experience. The first thing that came to mind was I hope I didn't end up turning into one of those crazy pageant parents. I think I'm level-headed enough to avoid falling down that path. It'll be great to tell him about this when he gets older. Who knows, he may be the next face of Gerber. Okay, maybe I'm getting a little ahead of myself.

Tary and I have been considering our options for Danny's education. It would be nice to provide him with the best education that we can afford. But schools like Phillips Academy don't come cheap. We'll get some compensation in return for some photos of Danny and some of our time but every little bit helps in the long run.

It's kind of fun to speculate what Danny will end up doing when he grows up. According to our parents, he's going to be the President of the United States of America one day. My friends like to tell us that he'll be a professional athlete in the NBA or the NFL. He might just end up being an engineer like his Daddy. Who knows, maybe he'll be a movie star. Whatever he ends up becoming, I'm always going to love him. But as his father, I'm just so proud that my little man already has such a good work ethic. :)
