I am.....

I still remember that first picture I saw of you.

You looked like an alien.

Not a child.

You grew in your mommys stomach.

Listening to the world from inside.

Preparing to change our world on the outside.

Getting ready to make me the man I am.

The first time I held your finger I knew my life had changed.

Changed for the good.

The ultimate test was before me. 

And I knew if I failed.

I also would be failing you.

You were so tiny.

And made me feel like the biggest man on this planet.

That day you made me the man I am.

As you grew you decided you needed some playmates.

Your prayers were answered not once, but twice.

Giving you not only a brother, but a sister also.

I instantly became two things when my children were born.

My sons first hero.

My daughters first love.

They made me the man I am today.

Each day you challenge me in ways I will never understand.

And probably in ways you don't either.

I hope I pass the test.

Whether it being a hero.

Villain.

Prince.

And yes sometimes a princess so you can do my hair.

Those are the days that make me the man I am today.

Blessed.

Lucky.

Are two words that don't come close to explaining how I feel.

How I feel to be chosen to become a dad to you three.

Because of you three you have made me the man I am today.

Jaiden's, Brodey's, and BayLei's Dad.

And sometimes Mr. Miller.

Is how I am known now.

I have lost my name when it comes to children.

But that is ok.

Because you have made me the man I am today.

Your father.

And I couldn't be happier!
