His Thoughts on Parenthood


He writes:

The most precious and blessed gift a man could ever have is becoming a father. Back in late April 2010, my family and I went on vacation to California. It was the first time our then 13 month old son had seen the ocean, which to him probably resembled a HUGE bathtub. He loves the water. Watching him crawl excitedly through the sand was one of the most exciting moments of being a father.


I once remember an uncle of mine telling me when I was a teenager that "the experience of becoming a father begins the moment the baby is born. When that man accepts the responsibility of fatherhood he starts on the journey of a lifetime: building a relationship with his son/daughter and the childs mother." Great communication along with good parenting changes how a married couple divides their responsibilities within the home. Our son Liam is the twinkle of my eye. We couldnt be more proud parents. God has blessed my wife and I tremendously with Liam. Parenthood is truly a blessing.
