I know, I know. It’s been a while. The reality is, since my last post, life has been life’n. Some good, some not so good. But that’s life. And as a dad, I have to be willing to adjust when life throws me a curveball or two. Or three. When things go awry, as they most certainly will, one thing’s for sure – fatherhood continues. Kids are oblivious to the world, and they don’t know, or care, that you’re going through stuff. In some ways, their innocence is comforting. While we’re stressed out, tired, and trying to figure out our next moves, there they are, still full of energy and without a care in the world. For a few minutes, it allows you to forget about what’s going on, and it makes you want to do everything you can to make sure you’re being the best dad you can for them.
My Emery lives without a care in the world, outside of milk and Elmo requests, and that keeps my gas tank from hitting E. Keep going brother!
