Commissioning 2009


I am sitting here trying to figure out how to express my feelings after witnessing my 2nd oldest son's graduation and commissioning this past weekend. I still remember him as a beautiful baby the moment I first laid my eyes on him. Other than his hair darkening, he hasn't changed a bit; he's still as beautiful. More than being a proud father, I am a father that is even happier for his son. He has survived the crucible for four years and is moving on to his aviation career. Two children graduated, two more to go. I will do everything in my power to see them all become successful. I have discovered the secret of happiness, the attainment of the level of selfactualization: my love for my children and involvement in their lives.
