I've not been on in a while, been busy, life has been blessed in fairness.
My kids are in bed and as it always does, this place draws me to it when i'm experiencing a wee moment. It's not a bad moment, just sometimes, you spend the day with your kids and you just get a real glow over fucking nothing...... they're just doing what they do as normal, but once in a while, the sun is out and you close the laptop, ignore the phone, and you pay attention.......
You actually see what you've created, maybe you notice it more than other days, there's a pride in being a good father but... pride is noticing your influence in your kids. I walk in the footsteps of my own folks and my kids are walking those very same footsteps by default. We walk in the image of generations before.
Maybe its the monthly spliff talking, but today my pride isn't that they did what they were brought up to do, today i NOTICED it, i paid enough attention and got a reward. Kids are the gift that keeps giving and they know not what gifts they give you.
God bless all
They love this song and we should all listen
