Summer evenings with a carefree little boy and a loving wife, and living on the Atlantic ocean. These are those perfect little moments that make it all worthwhile.
A dad once told me that the key to staying close to your kids is to read to them every day. I like this advice. And I have read to Conor every night of his life unless I was away on business. And even then, a couple of times I made a video of me reading and sent it to him. Tonight, we're cracking open a new book, Rudyard Kipling's, "Just so Stories." My dad read me this book when I was a kid and I loved it. I think there might be something to the advice from that dad because my son and I are extremely close. Then again, he's only two years old. Still plenty of time for him to decide I don't know crap.
