Moments to Remember
Everyone has moments that they would like to capture in a bottle and revisit on demand: that first kiss, the standing ovation for an individual performance, the game-winning score. But until you become a father, there are a whole panorama of other such experiences that you cannot imagine.
Like spending an evening with your daughter making little beds for her stuffed animals, reading them books, and saying goodnight.
Like having your daughter hug you at the end of the day and say "I love playing with you, Daddy!"
Like your son begging for just one more game of hide-and-seek, and the joy on his face when Daddy agrees.
Sure, there are tough moments as well. But those memories won't be kept and won't be revisited.
