I have two Daughters. They are 2 and 3 now. I'm not looking forward to the teenage years. The younger one can't go out in the sun though. It is the older one that is going to be my curse.
My Dads only daughter was his easiest child to raise. She was quiet and read a lot of books. She got married in the Air force after coming home from buisness school.
His oldest son went to MSU for Astro Physics. We were POOR back then!
His youngest son was the test! Continuosly in trouble from the time he was born! He and his son had only one common interest, Hunting, and there just isn't enough time to bond that way. This son quit school at 15. Was in and out of jail repeatedly For the next three years. Then moved far away.
It took a lot of years to earn my dad's trust and respect but, Now we are closer than him and any of my siblings. I'm the go-between. If my Dad want's to get the family together, I make the calls. Even though I live farther away than two of my brothers.
I'm sorry, I didn't mean to write a blog about my life. My point was about the "fathers curse". I'm in trouble.
