children

i received a card from one of my brothers and his family. there was a picture of my 4 year old nephew in his karate garb. the beaming happiness in his smile reminded me of what it is to be a parent. all the work, disappointment, sacrifices and out and out drudgery are erased in an instant.

I can go on a wild rampage if you need me to. Who am I kidding, no I can't.

I know A certain beautiful articulate young lady who happens to be a child of yours. I would like to think that from everything I know of her and what she has become that looking at a picture of her would bring a thought of well deserved fatherly pride into your life.
