Mom and Dad

Seems like the older my parents get the more I miss them when they're not around. I know they won't live forever and I want to spend as much time as I can with them before they're gone. I also want our son to have enough time with them to remember them... Sometimes I think I'm so damn selfish for waiting so long to have a kid. I just hope I can make it up to him by being as good a father as my dad is. That's a pretty high standard:) I wish I could give my son the kind of life my parents gave to me and my sister - living in a small town and always having time for the kids. Sometimes life just seems too complicated. Running here, running there, always worrying about improving our incomes and saving for the future... I need to talk to my wife and see if we can slow down and be happy with less. Don't know though... for her it's not about having things but about economic security. These days who can blame her? I need to simplify though, I'm really starting to feel burned out.
