I worry way more about raising Andrew right than I do the girls.

Pressure that the world doesn't even know yet. Female power is great, but it's shifting a lot of societal focus to women. Women *can* go to college, be CEO's, run the family, win the bread, nurture the children, and do everything with grace. So where does that leave men? I think it gives them excuses to be absent. To be lazy. To disappear from society. And that's not okay. The world needs men. Families need fathers. I think raising good boys is a hugely important challenge. You're cut out for it though.

I've heard boys are easier than girls when it comes to raising babies but my thought is they're going to be about the same when they get to be teenagers, it's gonna be tough but between you and Jericho as parents I'm pretty certain these will be some well mannered, cool kids.ReLhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06408648962903216798noreply@blogger.com
