If I had to make a guess, I would say that my dad has been to over 95% of every sporting or extracurricular event that I have ever been involved in. This has profoundly influenced the way I view love and friendship. I expect someone who truly cares for me, to be there for me when I need them because that is what I saw lived out with my dad. Likewise, I want to be the type of person who won't forget about his friends and family. That's why it's so hard to be here now.
My dad had a doctor's appointment last Friday concerning the hole he has in his heart. I wanted to be there to show him I cared, but I was here.
My brother and sister-in-law had their first child today making me and Becki an aunt and uncle. I want to be there to show them and the baby that I love them and will be there for them, but I am here.
It's out of my hands though. I can't be there for them which is a good thing because I would ultimately let them down. Thankfully, there is a God who is there and won't let them down.
