Hey, “Dad,” You Need To Hear This

I've said it before, and I will say it again - being a father isn't easy. For the record, neither is being a mother. Someone sent this to me after a phone conversation recently. I was saying how exhausted I was and how I felt like I wasn't doing enough to make a difference, among … Continue reading Hey, “Dad,” You Need To Hear This →

A Proud Son

I waited until he posted about this first, and now I want to share it with you. It brought me to tears. First, let me say the pride a father feels in his children. The father-son bond is a special one. All too often, we lose sight of the pride that a son has for … Continue reading A Proud Son →
