A Decade In...I Have Arrived.
I became a parent 10 years and about a month ago; May 25, 1995. I hope that next year I'll finally have time to journal through those years and the path of parenthood I've been on. It would be kind to say that at times I've been ambivalent about being a parent. It intimidates me. It scares me. It drives me to new levels of humility. Often I wish I hadn't gone that direction.
Yesterday, yet again, Peace sliced away the excess fat of my parenting neurosis. With strength and sincerity he reordered my priorities and refocused my perspective. I'm just glad I was smart enough to listen.
