I Am a Father

I remember driving down to John Hopkins Hospital at least a half dozen times to the fertility clinic to find or figure out why we couldn't get pregnant. It turned out my wife had to have a hysterectomy at the age of 25. I knew that wasn't going to stop us as we both wanted a child dearly. We were already on a list to adopt from the local Social Catholic Charities. After 8 years of waiting we finally got the chance from a young girl who was already a mother at the age of 17 the year before.
He was born on June 17th 1990, which was Father's Day. The best gift and blessing I could possibly receive on Father's Day! He's my best friend and I love him dearly. Happy Birthday Son! And Happy Father's Day to all you Daddy's!

Thanks Graessparrow! At the time, I was so happy, I didn't realize the significance of it all. But now I am reminded every year.
