Now one of my babies is getting married and the other is starting medical school. (Plus the other baby teaching in Africa and the first baby currently in Italy.) Put your kids in as many activities as you can: t-ball, soccer, karate, scouts, art classes, cooking classes, etc. I think strongly that they should be exposed to and even participate in some sort of volunteer work, whether it's helping mom and dad pick up trash or collect clothing for the poor or whatever. They'll benefit from the range of experiences, and something just might stick and become a lifelong passion. Ah, I remember those days.

Wow... you are blessed. I appreciate your insight- we hope to do just that. It must have been quite a circus with your kids and all the activities! I'm not sure how those with big families do it all sometimes. But he really enjoys being, and living... no real passion for anything yet. Yet he does have a yearning to help others, and to become a Veterinarian! We'll see... I'm taking him trout fishing tomorrow. I'm mostly humbled by his insight and my own fatherhood! He's growing so fast... Thanks again for your words- Hi Pablo! Wow… you are blessed. I appreciate your insight- we hope to do just that.
