Ramblings on Fatherhood...

I can remember how I used to not want to be a Father many years ago. I figured it was something that I would screw up and the responsibilty was too great. The concept of marriage didn’t bother me when I married my wife (I look at that as a life long deal) as I knew what I was getting into. But raising a child… now that is something that was SCARY to me…
I tried to delay as long as I could so my wife and I could do some traveling and have fun… but her biological clock was ticking and I was running out of excuses…

It seemed as if we couldn’t have offspring for we tried many different times when I was willing to accept my fate… but after 5 years of trying, in a hotel on Waikkiki Beach that EPT had a plus in the window. Well I was getting excited but quite unsure of how I was gonna become a Father… Then 9 months later out popped the most beautiful little infant in the world. I realized in retrospect that as a child grows, so does the father.

Luckily for us the Almighty doesn’t give us full grown kids, but babies. Both the Father and Mother are infants as well in learning how to cope with their new bundle of joy. As the child grows, so does the parenting if you want to actually do it.

I think the world needs more TRUE Mothers and Fathers, those that put their children’s interest and well being ahead of theirs. Sometimes you don’t want to deal with having to interact with your children, but that attention means more to them than ANYTHING else you can do for them!

Just this week I added (with mostly Mrs. ZA’s and God’s help) another beautiful, perfect child to this planet.

I have come a long way from being that reluctant Dad, but realize that many Fathers to be have the same anxeity and same doubts as to their parenting ability. That seems to me, the way that all Fathers start out, and the ones who truly love their children will grow into some pretty awesome Fathers!!!

God Bless and 73!
