My Kids Are There When I Need Them Most

Without them, I would wallow in my own mind during times when my own mind is the most dangerous place to wallow in.

Your kid is watching. You can’t scream. You can’t yell. You can’t say all the bad things you’re dying to say.

I never know what fatherhood surprises are lurking around the corner.

Some moments she’s my little princess. Other moments she’s the evil queen.

I know that every cent spent is a minute earned burned, but she doesn’t.

Why do I have to physically stop myself from bringing in a plate of pizza bagels and taking a seat in the circle?

It’s not about the people around you. It’s about the person within you.

Say their names and I see a snapshot from long ago. Their ages far exceed my my memories.

Ironically, it feels selfish…when it’s the most selfless thing you can do.

Being a zany dad during lighter times makes me approachable during those heavier ones.
