My little family has had a tumultuous past few weeks. I won't go into a lot of details here, because my wife is a writer and has already written what I would have said in a much more eloquent manner than possible for me.
I will however share a few thoughts about the fact that I was nervous as all get-out that I would become a young widower and single father. I know that sounds a little selfish, but I don't want to raise my daughter alone and I feel kids need 2 parents to help them have the best chance of success in life. That's not to say kids can't survive and be successful being raised by a single-parent, but my daughter will need all the help she can get (translated to: she needs her mom to help her be normal, I'm a nutcase!)
I just know that I Love my wife more than I even realize sometimes. I seriously do stupid things and don't always treat her the way I know she deserves to be treated, but what man does? I just hope that through all of this I can somehow find a way to be the type of man I convinced Lisa I could one day become.
Check out Lisa's incident in her own words and find out more of what the heck I'm talking about.
We think you are pretty wonderful for her... you don't give yourself enough credit here. Thanks for being her rock at this point.
