Gents,
Being a father is not easy. Being a good father even harder. I am a father of two. Girl 6 and Boy 5. Don't let the numbers fool you. They are 20 months apart. I consider myself as a great father. I spend lots of quantity and quality time with them. I coach them and nurture them. I mentor them and I teach them. I am a role model for them and protect them. I am one of those father that like to play with them physically, not playing video games or passive activities. Matter of fact we dont own any electronic game station. I have the traditional fatherhood values with a modern twist. I view my job/career is secondary and my kids/family is the first in priority. So, few years ago, I decided to work around 25-30 hours a week and my wife also work around 30 hours a week. I view money I can always find more, but time is something no one can make more. I only have a short window of time to influence and guide them. So I am taking advantage of this developmental opportunity. We are not well off but we are rich in life, family and happiness. I am truly blessed. So, I just want to say: Fathers, you deserve it! This weekend is yours. Remember, being a dad is easy but being a father is alot harder.
