I love being a father. I love my daughter, she is the “apple” of my eye and I am so glad that she is in my life. A love for a daughter is different than a love for a son but certainly no less special. With my son I feel that we are “kindred spirits’. We seem to have an unspoken understanding of each other even though he is only nine years old. He knows that I like the drums and through the years he has watched me play drums at various venues. I don’t play much anymore but now my son seems to have a natural inclination to play drums and not surprisingly has very good rhythm.
For my son’s tenth birthday I must get him some kids drums! No question about it! I have a lot of contacts to I know I will be able to find something absolutely perfect for him. There are so many cool kids drumsets today that were not available when I was his age. This will be a lot of fun and yet another bonding experience for he and I. The relationships I have with my two children mean the world to me and I am so enjoying the journey. I wouldn’t have it any other way!
