Recently I was called on a

Recently I was called on a business trip at the last minute.  My kid had a meltdown the night before I left.  His behavior was atrocious.  While I was gone, my wife mentioned that he had said he was really sad that I was gone and that he was really glad I would be back the next day.  I guess that without my being at home, he gave back a little.

Sometimes I look at my friends and family's families and am a little jealous.  But then I take a step back and look at my fabulous, incredible, resilient, smart kid and realize that being his dad is one of the most amazing experiences I have ever had.
