I miss them

She has ventured into New York to see family and friends with the little one.  The other kids are with their fathers for the week and my wife will be bringing them home after the week is over.  I have grown very fond of all the little ones, the two eldest, as expected, are my biggest challenge.

Patience is not my virtue however, but I need it in order to gain their love.  They know and I know that I will never be their father, nor do I ever wish to assume that role unless they request it.

Although this week without the children has given my wife and I an opportunity to rebalance our relationship.  Stop the senseless fighting and share some love.  It is always a challenge with personalities, beliefs and experience.  Our life is ours...ours to fuck up.
