There is no more vital calling or vocation for men than fathering.
A father is the man who expects his son to be as good as the man he meant to be.
One father equals a hundred schoolmasters.
A father provides love, strength, wisdom, security, example, friendship and fun.
Children's children are the crown of old men; the glory of children are their fathers.
Tell me who your father is and I'll tell you who you are.
You are a king by your own fireside, as much as any monarch on his throne.
A father is a banker provided by nature.
The most important thing a father can do for his children is to love their mother.
A father is a man who can't get on the phone, in the bathroom, or out of the house.

I see you speak from personal experience.
I'm sure you will understand and appreciate the following...
"No man can possibly know what life means, what the world means, what anything means, until he has a child and loves it."

It appears to me that you found another special person, just as he did with you.

I have always believed that God put us together when He did, while my parents were still with us. The way they accepted NPP into their lives was amazing. They found the good and honest person somewhat lost behind the last vestiges of the angry and distorted world from which he came. That was a LONG time ago, and our lives have been blessed so much since then.

Both of you are truly a blessing to many, and many of the children that you have helped will rise up and call you both blessed.

Many of the posters on OPP, like you, are a significant blessing to both of us.
