I’m sure there are other single dads who pick up their sons’ friends and take them to museums. I’m sure there are other dads who invite more children along to vehicle capacity. I’m sure these dads would later get their sons to jiu-jitsu, pick up burritos, and head out to a Friday night production of Romeo and Juliet.
Some of these dads may even take a walk to spend a quiet moment with a historical landmark plaque and remember a dad who couldn’t be with his children tonight.
I’m not sure any of these dads would find a new labyrinth on that walk or a flat tire after three hours of Shakespeare.
A friend stepped up to the 11:30pm rescue call and I got my boys into bed by 12:30. They’re champs. I didn’t drag them into any of it, we were all on our seat-of-the-pants game today. I’m continually blessed by these fireballs.
God bless and thank you for reading,
