I have had recent doubts personally where I am heading in my life and if I am doing the right things for Emma, Sapphire and Teo. Do I make enough money, do I love my kids the right way, do I provide the needed love and support to Emma. Why do I feel that there are days or weeks that I can not do any right personally and professionally.
I ponder my exist on this plant and ask myself and ask God for help to give me clues and signs of what to do now, tomorrow and next week. During these times I can look to a few pictures, memories and events in my life and realize that I am a good person I do care I do love and I am doing this in service to Emma. I have faltered and as humans we will falter and it is a judge of character when that person falters and picks up the pieces and moves forward with their head high as true judge of character.
So look at your soul mate and tell them "I love you", "you are everything to me", "I can't do this without you" and set out everyday to put your best foot forward and don't look back at the things you would have done differently because they are in the past and there is no changing those now.
What you can change is how you walk through life with your partner. One of my gifts to "us" for Emma's Birthday is to make that change in my life and to take a different path.
Emma Happy 33rd Birthday. You are the true love of my life. I can't wait to celebrate more birthdays together, to see our family grow up and experience more things together.
Love Kevin
