be a good father

i explained to my 3.5 year old girl why her sunflowers have to die for the winter. why trees lose their leaves and how they go dormant…1000 questions later i was happy i paid attention in science class…

my 2 year old boy and i played with all his toy trucks and equitment in the sandbox…he was so pleased he passed out right after lunch..

airplane rides, wrestling, P and J sandwiches.. nursery school and book reading… they are napping.. i wore them out

Only my daughter can, and only through he prism of hindsight.

I’ll do the best I can, and even though she is only two months old, I know I’ll never give up on her.

That’s what I can try to do now. Payback all the great lessons and love my parent’s gave me. She deserves more than I could ever give.

So I guess, this one is going to be on here for a long time…

I haven’t started this yet, but I’m a mere 23 weeks away from giving it my best shot, so I figure now is a good time to set this goal. I have a great father myself, so hopefully I can continue the legacy.

Goal: Have a child sometime in the future! :)

I need someone can teach my baby in different good style.

it might be a repetition: I have the most wonderful children I could think of -
active, positive, reliable and understanding.

Okay so I’ve got 14 months in so far and things are going great. My son Shawn Christopher Kennerly is healthy, active and a “daddy’s boy” all the way. He’s walking now and talking to my fiancee and I in his language. He’s a very happy child and very smart. My lady and I take very good care of him as well as plan for his future. I believe in discipline, but only to an extent. I don’t restrict him from exploring. He’s new to this world so he’s going to touch things and now that he’s walking he’s all over the place. In addition to his development my lady and I just had another baby boy on May 16, 2009. Justin Alexander Kennerly. Now we have three boys. Jamarr is 4 and I feel like I’m doing well with him. But as far as Justin goes I’m back to the long nights, but loving every minute of it. NO LIE!! As I said its a work in progress.

I’m not consider myself a terrible father; although I’m not the one who should qualify this. But I do know I could be much better at it. I tend to loose my temper with this little guy really easy and I guess I don’t play enough with him; that conflict me a lot. So I guess I have to work on these two main subjects; I have to make my son laugh a lot more of what I do now and make my presence a better and positive time for him. And I also have to be more participative in his exercising program and find the way to make it an enjoyable time as well. He’s a terrific and very sweet kid and I don’t want to ruin his best years with a grumpy father.

where my daughter played the flute.
I was very proud.
