Fatherhood

on August 30, 2009 at 1203am I became 'daddy' for the first time. It was at once joyful and terrifying. The weight of the world was on my shoulders. I not only had myself and my wife to care for, but now this tiny human, completely helpless. I remember staring at her while she slept, not quite believing that we had a child.
James and I have 7 children between us aged 1.5yrs to 19yrs. We sat down early one morning to have a chat about what fatherhood means, about sacrificing what we think we need to do, about being present in the lives of our kids. By no means are we perfect in this, but rather strive to do better than before.
Notes on this episode:
We recorded pretty early in the am, not trying to excuse how tired we sound, we're just not morning people.
We recorded in my living room while my 3 kids were up stairs. There are a couple times when they venture downstairs to tattle on each other, I tried to edit it all out but some still made it in there.
