Working under the Radar

I feel as if I must type quietly....as if the sound of the buttons on my computer will wake up one of the precious ones sleeping nearby.

It's 500am here in Costa Rica, on Saturday September 5th...As I sit at the barstool sipping my coffee as is customary for me every day, my newborn (3 week old this morning) daughter Samantha is resting in one of the greatest inventions in modern day, the baby papason chair. I only wish the grown up version also vibrated and had such calming music.

In the other room, my wife, whose birthday is today, and my near 5 yr old daughter Maya are still resting.

What has become customary to me, the morning coffee and lightning work ritual before the crew arises, allows me a unique time to work, but also to reflect on the silince that is so rare in a household with two young children. Silence can be so calming, but at the same time, so cautionary (sp, word?>)....The mere silence reminds me of how quickly this will change to livelihood any moment, when one of the ladies in the house starts to stir...

Well, enough morning philosophy, cleary this coffee has not taken its affect.

Back to work....Plugging away on some interesting deals right now, so back to the drawing board.
