I have a Father whose name is on my birth certificate, but I've got a Dad that has his name all over my personality, my view of men, my expectations of men, the way I look at myself, my whole being.
Even though my Mom married this man after I became a teenager, I still got alot of helpful things from him, guidance.
I was fortunate enough to grow up with male family members that were role models in a positive way. I have Uncles that I love dearly and they would go to the mat for me on any day at any time.
I have made two important men in my life Godfathers to my children. I knew that they would need guidance and that I would need help because I have boys and a girl.
I have my Father God above all to help me and always walk with me. I pray constantly for his help and guidance.
I married someone that wasn't a good role model for my children but because I prayed and waited patiently, God put in place a wonderful MAN and ROLE MODEL who has changed alot of the negative ideas my kids have, he has come along and shown them how to treat people overall.
I hope and pray that EVERYONE has those special people in their lives that give them the guidance and secure grounding that we all need.
Be Blessed!!!
