I am not well. I might as well keep sobbing. You captured your love for her so beautifully here. I go down a hole of thinking of the hardships my kids will encounter one day, and how it's all out of my control and that a lot of it is necessary. My son is 5 now and he is pure magic. That imagination of his, it's incredible. I can remember small snippets of my own, but the images are foggy. I don't know when it was that I..lost..some of it
You know the path that you face as a father, Sam. Recently, I walked my daughter down the aisle, gave a toast, and danced with her. It was wonderful, and filled with tears. I’m ruined and I couldn’t be happier.
I was referring to being a father, Sam. The rest of my life doesn’t quite measure up to that. I’m a work in progress. I’ve always wanted my kids to be happy. A wedding day is the ultimate stage for that. Our first grandchild is due in a few weeks. I know what this means to her. Being a father is tough and wonderful. You do your best. You make mistakes. You love them all the time.
Enjoy listening to “Letting You Go” by Isbell and not crying. I tried to raise a feral backcountry bobcat and wound up with a princess. She does pull players by the shirt at soccer though, so some of me is inside her. It gets more fun every year.

I would love to hear more about that Rod. I have much to learn to be happier and ruined.
