I love my kids but sometimes they are a pain in the ass. When they go away I miss them but it seems when they come back it does not take long for me to want them to go away again. My children are a huge part of who I am and I would be lost without them. It's hard to be a dad because it's hard to see your mistakes coming out of your children. You look back over your life and think "Geez I wish I had taken school or my first job more seriously" and then as a dad you get to see your children do they same silly things you did. The stupid thing is you always say that you will never let your children do the dumb things you did but when its all said and done, they do, and you really never had that much control. My kids are chick and boy. Boy is 16 and chick is 13. Boy lives with me and chick lives with Mum. They are well adjusted and very personable and I love them so very much. They are so funny and when they spend time together they dont stop laughing. Boy has told me many times that chick is his best friend and he tells everything to her. One thing that blows me away is there step dad. Here is a guy who never had his own kids but was totally willing to love mine and put up with there daily good and bad times. He has lived through christmas's and birthday's. He has put up with bad attitudes and loved awesome smiles. He has gone out or in his case has stayed in to provide for them and they are not his flesh and blood. He did not take on just a wife when he got married to her but he took on a fully fledged living family organism and succeeded. My children love him and consider him such a huge and integral part of there lives and I know would be lesser people without him. He really is a very good and honourable man and I thank him for caring and putting his wants and needs second to his childrens. Chick and boy will succeed and alot of their success will be attributed to you. Thank you.
Thanks kids for been a beautiful, lively, scary, funny, loud, sad, annoying, special, creative and constant pain in my ass!!!

love you dad
ReplyDeleteYou need an editor, son. "Their" is possessive, "there" relates to location and "they're" is an abbreviation for "they are".
ReplyDeleteHaving said that (pardon my pedantry, it's genetically inherited from Dad!) you've written a nice article there, Brother! Quite touching, actually. Well said!
