This is a scary responsibility. Being the father of two children. Two sons. Two future men. I hope, one day, both my sons are stronger than I.
They have a unique gift of making anyone smile just by looking in their eyes. There is something in my sons’ smiles and a little softness in their eyes that brings life and joy onto the face of anyone who meets them. There is no greater compliment a father could experience.
As much as I worry about my status as their male mentor, it is just wasted energy. They are OK now and will be amazing tomorrow. Ike and Abel are little rock stars already. The world is a better place because they are here. Of course, these words are easier typed than understood.
