Putting Things in Perspective

Shortly after the birth of Stella, Scott's producer brain begins concepting this video to depict the era before Stella up until her incredible arrival.
Life becomes redefined as we know it. Things now become 'pre-Stella' and 'post-Stella'. There is now a very real little 'creature' that exemplifies what is truly important, and the crazy-quick passage of time. We are now one of THOSE people who respond to time questions with Stella time. It's sad but true. Post-Stella milestones are no longer individualized to us.
For example, Scott no longer responds to questions like "well, let's see, I was at LaRocca's lake cottage listening to "Sweet Child O' Mine", so I was in the eighth grade...making it the summer of '88...". Those types of responses have been replaced with "well, let's see, Stella was a month and a half, making it July of '06...".
But I digress...

In what seemed to be a blink of an eye, S2K becomes S3K...and according to the editor of this video (aka "Daddy-O"), everything gets 'put in perspective'.

Already we have learned a lot from our new, beautiful baby girl...and it continues, with each passing minute. She teaches us so much of what is truly important.
