The Unexpectant Father

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?

In this house, you say goodbye when you leave.

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

I can’t just lay in bed all day. I have kids and responsibilities. Even if I didn’t, I still can’t stay in bed all day.

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

You don’t know what’s missing because you don’t even realize a piece should be there.

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