Parenting is no easy thing. How is it that we can be judgmental of everyone else's kids, but can see no wrong in our own? Or is it the other way around?I think I've probably learned more about myself through being a parent than in any other pursuit. It's changed me for the good. It's helped me see understand God so much better. My appreciation for Diane has quadrupled from the high place it was at the get-go.
One thing that I can say for sure, is that after 15+ years of being a dad, I wouldn't trade it for anything in the world. More like I wouldn't trade Jessica & Taylor.
Is it OK to say that I think they are amazing? (Is it OK to admit that I feel short and non-musical next to Taylor and I feel like a lousy actor and non-creative next to Jessica?)
And to think that I once had a life that didn't have them in it.
God, you are so cool. You give good gifts!
