I had a dream last night in which my best friend Taylor Tehan and I met up with the Kurtens (Jason and Jena) to make a trade with another family that went to the church. In the dream the Kurtens were the middle man and the church family wanted to trade their two kids (infant and 4 year old) for our Timbuk2 messenger bags. The trade was made during a choir concert at the church and Taylor got the infant and I got the 4 year old kid. At this point Taylor left the dream and I was stuck with the kid. I brought it home and he was getting all dirty and bringing mud into the house. Drew Cavin and I taught him how to take off his shoes so that no mud got on the carpet. Mentally I was fighting the thought of why I have this kid and how my life is changing every second. I can't do things like workout or drink coffee and on top of all that what does the kid think about me? Does he miss his parents? .... I don't have time for this... I don't want a kid right now...
When I woke up it was 6:20am and Drew was coming into my room to go to CrossFit. I rolled over and smiled because it was a dream and I was about to go workout. No kid was crying saying, "what about me?" and my life seemed simple. My Timbuk2 bag was right where I left it and there was no mud on the carpet.

Am I ready to have a kid? I'm ready to marry Jordan and have a family with her!! I'm not ready to give up my Timbuk2 bag.
