Chapter 12: A Father’s Perspective

Wow! I am just amazed at the work my son did with his art and his chapter. I had to look over at my son right now. I told him not only do you listen to me and what I tell you, but you analyze. You think about what I say. And more importantly, you are thinking on your own and thinking in your own way and developing your own perspective. It makes me very proud as his father. It’s not just watching him grow, and am watching him in what he is writing, and I am watching him maturing and becoming a young man. I realize I am more of a talker and he is more of a writer. He really expresses himself more in detail in his writing. I need to learn to write more and I want him to learn to talk more. I had a revelation when I read what he wrote for this book. It was deep. I am speechless. It’s about him. I am getting emotional just thinking about this.
