[bodytext] => At the end of my life when it’s all said and done have I been a good father to my sons? Did I teach them to share, did I teach them to care And did I teach them how to be fair? Did I show them compassion and fill them with love, and let them know how special it all was? Did I give them the tools to stand up for what they believe and never back down, run or leave? Did I give them the power to become their own man; did I give them the wisdom for their life plan? Did I show them how to love their wife by treating their mother with respect and a wonderful life? Did I show them that it’s okay for a man to shed tears and even have fears? Did I instill believes that family is forever and we love, trust and help protect one another? Did I give them the strength to never give up and to always carry their heads held up? Did I give them everything they’ll ever need and the wisdom to get what I couldn’t conceive? Did I give them all of me everything I had so when they look back they can say what a wonderful Dad? He tried his best to give us a good life and to show us wrong and right. He loved us all and gave us his best, and now as men he can finally rest. We are his sons, his pride and joy and for always his precious little boys

Very nicely written. I myself have 2 children and often wonder the same things you have. Hoping that my children will be the best that they can be and have courage love and understanding.

WOW - I love that. I have two boys myself and I hope that my husband will teach them things like that!
