Thankful Thursdays

Seven years and nine months ago I successfully procreated and produced a small female child whom I will refer to as Bugaboo. Now this is an interesting life development for more than just the obvious reasons due to me previously being against multiplying. This was not so much a noble decision as it was out of fear, fear that I myself would become like my parents which near the end of my childhood days were less than decent. I was under the belief that I would make a terrible father and a child would be better off not existing than to suffer through what I had for a large portion of my life. That all changed the second my little girl was brought into this world and even further solidified by the arrival of my Son two years later whom we shall call Bubbas. I am far from perfect, in fact my father skills aren't so much "Leave it to Beaver" as they are Homer Simpson, but gosh do I love my babies. And in the end it might not even be them who gets the most out of the deal for I have grown and changed and become an honest to goodness man because of my children. They have changed my life in every aspect and beyond the constant picking up of sharp plastic objects peppered like mines throughout my home I would call them perfect little people. So on this day I thank my Bugaboo and Bubbas for making life worth living everyday, there is nothing more wonderful than to see you smile and hear you say with unflinching conviction that you love me. Now please, I will give you ice cream if you could only just pick up your darn toys.....
