My little girl just turned 18

LOL. So she was driving with you in the car? Take her to the graveyard to practice! My mom did that with me. Lots of curves and its slow with no traffic.

And it will serve as a good reminder of the consequences of not driving defensively!

Beautiful and smart...Congrats G, you're a lucky Dad!

 

[b-boy]

AWWW greg she is gorgeous bro, I have two daughter and i honestly dred when they get old enough to drive, I will worry myself sick everytime they leave the house . I also dread the whole boyfriend thing also, i just pray they make wise decisions concerning boys and actually look for a quality guy and dont take the first thing that shows interest in them.

Im really glad to hear she's such a good student also greg, that is a true blessing. both my girls are excellent students 4.0 GPA and i really push them in that area of their life, I don't care if they ever play a sport or not, but damnit they better keep the grades perfect, I don't ask much out of them but that is my pet peave.

ha ha i also laughed at the part where you said your wife said she acts goofy like you....LOL then she must be a lot of fun to be around if thats the case ha ha ha/

Thanks everyone, I appreciate the comments. Life is a blur when it comes to your children, enjoy every moment. Brick, her eyes are from me hazel, but the beautiful part is her mother. B-Boy, sounds to me like you are doing a great job with them. cmollick, it will go by faster then you think, cherish the moments. Stevo47, my birthday is in a couple of days. I will be 50. My daughter told me there is a bright side, you will get a senior discount in 5 years. What a smartass!

Drivingforce, this is directed towards you. Kind of goes with your post. When I was growing up, I didn't have a great life, just the opposite. My father was in jail and my mother gave me up into foster homes at 3 months old. The foster homes back then had dark secrets that I don't care to discuss. Anyways, when I was growing up, I got shuffling foster home to foster home and became a bitter person. One thing I always wished for, was a family to be a part of. I was basically going to be a statisic. After so many years of being on my own, I gave up hope on having a family. In 1990, I met an angel, her name was Zina. She gave me hope once again and loved me more then I could ever imagine before that. We had two children and the rest is history.

Cherish a woman that is your soulmate, she will complete your circle of life. I am trully blessed to have the family I have. I hope God blesses you with that joy.

You're a good man. I think the hardest thing to overcome is bitterness, knowing first hand. I think its clearly evident that God smiled upon you, despite a very difficult beginning. Thanks for caring man, I really mean that.

Congratulations

On both raising a great child, and an equally large congratulations on raising yourself to be a honorable man - from a childhood straight out of Dickens.

Gee-whiz, your story makes one think twice about their own self-pity.

wow to you!
