Family

I experience moments of sheer and utter bliss with my family.

There are times that all I have to do is think about the wonderful family that surrounds me; my wife, my sons, my brother, and no mater what I am facing or experiencing becomes secondary to the joy my family gives me.

I had never known such contentment in my life…there is the thought that I had been incomplete before them. I can agree with that and what that means.

Happy, I embrace my family and the comfort they give me. I only hope that I give them as much.

Ack…Elementary School Style

When the wife was pregnant again, I had secretly hoped for a little
girl. Don’t ask me why, I’m a Daddy and I kind of wanted a little
girl.

When we found out Brodie was a boy, I felt a split second of sadness,
but I was really happy to say I had boys.

I was dropping Ben off this morning and it was around -20 out, so all
the kids were going directly inside.

What I saw…it hurt me.

I saw girls….grades 2-4…dressed in things I’d not want to see my
adult daughter in. This went well beyond the “Porn Star” line (of
which there was a shirt…sort of surprised the school allows that)
and into the “Wee Sluts” style.

Now I know what you’re saying…that I’m a prude or something like
that. I don’t think I’d be upset at seeing this in a High School
setting…I see it at Jo’s school and that usually boils down to
self-expression or blind mimicry….but this…in an elementary
school….egad.

Boys…I like my boys.
