Parenting through a fathers eyes
This is an area of my life that has taken some time to reach the level that I am at today. It wasn’t until I meet my wife and after many discussions and thought did I reach the decision to become a father. The love you have for another person is the ultimate reason why you should want to reproduce life together. This rationalization made me understand why and was the deciding point for me to take the first step into fatherhood.
I think everyone would agree that parenting is extremely hard at times but the rewards are always so much more worthwhile. The decision to become a parent should never be taken lightly or consider if you are a little unsure that you are ready for it. To be a parent is something that can not be compared to anything else that you will ever experience in life. The measurement of time seems almost in relation to the blink of an eye when seeing your kids grow up. You remember when they came into this world and then before you know it they are twice the size and still growing at a rapid pace.
At the time of writing this article my wife and I have two kids, a 4 year old daughter March 19 and a son who will is 8 months old this month. I could not ask for a better family in my eyes our family is the absolute best in the world. I work for the US Government and have a remaining two years left on my contract in Belgium. My wife stays at home by choice to raise our children and has plans to start her real estate career when we move to the states at the end of my contract. To be able to have one parent able to stay at home and raise the children is a luxury and also gives you peace of mind not having to worry about the care they are receiving.
Our daughter is very intelligent for her age and always asks for the explanation as to why, to see if she is in agreement with you. Most times she will be in agreement with you when she has distinguish the truth of what you are telling her because if she thinks you are not telling the truth she will definitely tell you. At school it is an easy observation to see just how advanced she is compared to other kids in her class. I know you may be thinking but you are the father and of course you will say that about your daughter but this is not the case. She looks like and takes after her mum very head strong, determined that she is right in almost any situation that occurs.
Our son very new to the world just turned 8 months old and said his first words dad dad. My wife tells me every day how much we look alike and that the only thing he got from her was eye color. He has already doubled in size since birth and at times I do not notice how fast he is growing until you see a picture of him or when my wife is getting rid of the smaller clothes he used to wear. At the present he definitely loves his milk, biscuits, bathing, watching his sister and running around the house in his walker. A very happy baby always laughing, smiling, talking and almost never crying accept when you have a slow response time on getting his milk and of course he never thinks it enough after you’ve feed him.
I would like to think that every parent out there share great moments with there child or children that they treasure forever. For me I would have to say that I love it when they smile at me and I get that feeling in my heart, of being loved and appreciated very much. This is something that in my opinion nothing else can possibly compare to and it is something that only a parent can experience. There is so much to learn from being a parent it is not just an act of raising your children. Every day is a new learning experience that you are apart of with your children and sometimes it may seem that your kids are getting the better of you but you have to remember that both the parent and child are basically in a learning process of getting to know what is right and wrong.
Almost always you hear parents stating that I will do this better than my parents have, well this is a definite if you come from a rusty spoon back ground such as I have. I know that our children are on a complete different path than I had to take and that my wife and I are raising our kids to the best standards that are possible. For starters our children will have a cultured background since my wife is from England and we are already living in another country and we will continue to travel regardless of where we live in the world. I know that both of our children have high potential and my wife and I will always continue to influence (not force) our kids in any right direction they choose to take. Parenting sometimes does not have a clear path but through patience and always striving to do your best you find that at the end it will always prove to be worthwhile!
