A friend of mine put this up on Facebook which gave me a good laugh- 

 

One of my favorite things in life is being a father- if that was the only thing I could do with my life, I’d be the happiest man alive.  Each day I’m learning and tinkering in hopes that my girls and I have the best relationship possible.  

What has always been interesting is understanding what parenting technique is needed for each of my daughters- Yes they come from the same mother and grew up in the same household, but they are two completely (almost completely lol) different girls. They require certain things based on their personality and emotional structure. 

Something that I think about, is that depending on their age and where you are in life, that your children might grow up knowing different versions of you.  Maryah in her early years was raised by the guy that was a first time father, trying to juggle sleep, work and being present.  Norah in her early years was raised by the guy who had five years of experience, and wasn’t as tight.  Both were raised by a loving black man that saw nothing but greatness in them since the day they were born. 

Our road has been all things combined, with many more miles to pave.

 

Back to the quote of my friend though ---- lmao --- I agree that definitely comes with it, the back and forth drama/comedy of your children changing their minds, and you doing whatever it takes to please them.
