Awwwwwwww come on now.........don't be so hard on yourself. You might be surprised at what your kids have to say about how they saw you as a Dad. No one tells us how to do this parenting thing. We just do the best we can. Besides, what's important is what you're doing to make sure that the bonds are strong from now on. When they needed you most you stepped up to the plate. That tells the whole story.
So uh, where's my drink? I'm thristy after my travels!
