Fathers and Children


Greetings Dear Reader,

As I move through the years and watch my Children grow I understand more and more the importance of being a good father.  The tapestry where I see the artistry of this is in the way my Son interacts with my Grandsons. 

Since the birth of the eldest child I have marveled at the gentle sweet manner in which he reassures his Sons.  He guides them with a firm kindness that will pay of tenfold when they are older.  I think he is already a much better father than I am.

The greatest challenge he will face is keeping up with his sons.  My oldest Grandson already shows signs of genuine genius.  Again I am proud of my Son’s honest assessment of the challenges this brings.  I can tell he is already thinking about what will best serve his son’s needs in this area.

He is a father who loves his children.  He is a husband who loves his wife.  Today I just wish to honor him for the father he is.   I am proud to be his father.  One could do well to follow his example.

Wishing you joy in the journey,
