Just The Two of Us:Journey of a Single Dad
” I will never date a woman with kids.” I can remember like it was yesterday, listing to conversations of young men in the locker room having a discussion about not choosing a woman that has children. I remember hearing people making the assumption that somehow children made her less than a woman. That children are like a stigma or a dreadful condition. Little do most people know what life is like when you are a single parent. Nevertheless, I am learning what it takes to be a single father. I am a newly single dad that has shared responsibility of my daughter. I have the honor of raising a lovely little girl, she lives with me during the school year. Funny as it seems I thought that I was a good man when she was born. She has made me a better man. I have run organizations that have served 1,500 client over 100 staff members, being a single dad is the most difficult job I have ever had. To be a single parent takes more than being just a virtuous man or woman, it takes superpower, a little bit of luck, and a sense of humor. Just the Two of Us is a journey about my life as a father raising my little girl. The lessons that I am learning, my experiences, and my difficulties in being a dad. As imperfect as my life may be I share a perfect love with my little girl. Why because like it or not, it is “Just The Two of Us.”s
