​I often forget why we have kids… It is not to meet a requirement or check a box off in the book of life. It is to have people, yes people, around to remind the world that we existed for a great and noble purpose that only you and god might understand.  We fill page after page on FB posting and talking about our kids, our grand kids or those of the ones we love.  We make them or try to make them in our own images whether they end up Democrats, Republicans, independents or “I don’t give a dams” but we care no matter what they become, not because of what they become but because of who they become.

I care more about the moments we are a part of than the moments they choose to exclude us from.  This weekend I am a part of so many “firsts” in my little girl’s life than I cannot count.  They help to make her the person she will be and I love that!  What a great realization I am going through knowing that three days can change the course of a person’s life and I get to be a part of it.
Thank you God and thank you world!  You are all part of what makes us whole….
