Thank you all for the birthday love. 40 is the new 20, or so Ive been told, yet 20 seems so long ago. I wanted to take a second and reflect in what a ride its been. Im a father of 5. Its no secret that I started fatherhood early, taking a role on with a little boy that was just a year n a half when I was a kid myself at 17. I promised him Id always be there for him, and am proud to call him my eldest at the age of 23 (24 in 11 days) Over the years, I would be lucky enough to father 4 more children. My three princess and then my little prince. Ive said it for awhile now, being a father is what I believe I am here to be. I believe in all 5 of my kids that one day, theyll make their own marks of achievement and greatness. Never allowing obstacles to stand in their way. They all have beautiful qualities that make them wonderful people. So all these years as a Dad, and yet I lost my most influential parent when I was 19. Man do I miss her, still to this day even with so many years gone by. Ive learned to cope, and she still inspires me, just in a different form now. I know, that she watches over me, accepting of my flaws, proud of my accomplishments and by my side at times when I have to make the tough decisions that life throws my way. And finally I want to reflect on pure love. I grew up angry, it lead to a lot of anger issues as a kid. A short fused temper , mixed with a big framed body , and an unstable thought pattern lead to a lot of , lets call them interesting times in my younger life. I didnt love myself, and in my mid twenties I would learn what true love of oneself in able to truly allow myself to love another meant , when I met Alicia. She opened my heart and allowed me to find true love within hers. Ive never believed in love storys yet my almost ten years of being married to her can be described nothing less than a love story. So what will the next 40 bring? I couldnt tell ya. The only thing I can promise, is that its gonna be one helluva ride :) Peace n Love in 15 Love love live
