**WARNING: may be emotional for some... and a little long** When I got home late last night, I followed my wife into our baby boys room. She was going in there to put some laundry away, and I followed to give her a hug and kiss. As I held her, we looked at our sleeping angel in the bed next to us. Just YESTERDAY we were looking at an empty crib wondering what it would be like to have a baby in there. Now hes 5 and his baby sister is 1. I kissed him on the forehead and rested my cheek against his for a minute. Then this morning (5:30am) he came into our bed as I was getting up for work. I did the same thing and told him how much I love him. I am completely astonished, amazed, and filled with joy thinking about my babies and how supremely blessed I am to have them when the doctors all said it would be a miracle for us to have even ONE kid, let alone 2. There are no words in any of our feeble human languages that can begin to describe even the smallest pip of overwhelming happiness that I feel every time I see them smile, or, laugh, or when they hug me, or when I sit there and watch them sleep. Ive heard people being accused of being addicted to their children. Well put me on the list. I love you, Luke and Leia! I will love you more and more with every breath that I breath, until there are no more breaths left in me. No matter what choices you make in life, or what you become, as long as Im alive, Daddy will always be there for you any time of day or night. I will fly across the country just to be there for you to have a shoulder to cry on, if thats what you need. When friends and life and everything else disappoints, Daddy will ALWAYS support, love, and care for you. Please forgive me if I ever get frustrated with you or seem unfair at times as you grow up. It is only because I love you SO much, and I want to try and provide the best possible life for you. **prayer** God, I pray that you help me to be the best example of You to my kids that I can be. Give me wisdom in every decision I make as I raise them. Help me to learn what THEIR love languages are, and learn how to speak love to them in a way that they can understand and receive it. Above all help me to always keep You as the top priority in our family. Help Jami and I to show them a pure and healthy relationship so that they will have a blueprint after which to pattern their future relationships. Thank You for all the blessings You have given me, and just for being so good to me regardless of how much I miss it. In Jesus name I pray ~Amen
