I will say this experience has definitely made me appreciate my boys more. I have always been close to both of them but now I've realized they are the most important things in my life. I have definitely gotten closer with my S6, who has always been a mommy's boy, but I find myself relating to him more and more. I don't know where I would be without them. I actually think they keep me from getting depressed because I know I have to be for them.


This was one of the many things I was grateful for. I believe I became a better father for this, realizing that spending time with my boys was far more important than many of the distractions adulthood offers.

I would get them out of school a little early every now and then after already packing a dinner of sandwiches snacks and bottled water and we would hike up a mountain and eat dinner at the top.
