learning to be Dad overagain

Even thought I raised 4 Children, I'm learning I didn't know much then, but they turned out well. Know at 63 I'm raising a 17 year old boy, and a 8 year old girl, and a 4 year old girl. these kids are real special in my life. By paying closer attention to them I learning alot about myself and life. I was always told that children are God's gift to us, I use to disagree with that. But know that I'm a lot older and God has awarded me and my wife another chance. I can say that is right on. It is a gift From God. And maybe my last chance. they are a hand full and sometimes drive me crazy. trying to teach Ben how to drive (Tell you what six flags isn't that scary) My 8 year old Kaydeebug thinks she is a princes and will not open her own doors. (Which I believe If I play along with that she is gone to expect the same thing from her boyfriends when she get Older). With both girls I learned Barbie walks on feet not her head. and Just watching them play together is something else. I missed out on this time with my other children. last night driving home from Fort Wayne Kaydeebug and I was listening to a old tape song called Daddy's Girl and she said yet That's me and the song ended tell your Daddy you love him. She said. Dad you know I love you. so do you think I have to say it all the time. I said I know I can see it your eyes and your smile. when we are together. she smiled and went to sleep.
