The kids went back to school this week and everyone is very, very happy...except for Mom and Dad. Christine and I are those weird parents who actually enjoy having the kids home and being able to share life's moments together. Yes, it is easier to grocery shop or do errands without the drama, but they are only young and living at home once.
No one will ever love our kids they way we can, and, therefore, no one can teach them about life, the Lord, and social skills like we can. It is a high calling to be a parent and I am so very, very glad the Lord has entrusted my wife and I with the challenge of raising three boys.
