I am a writer. I was once in the Marine Corps and I was once a teacher. But, over and above anything else I can be or have ever been, I am a father. My love for my daughter runs deeper than anything else I can imagine. She kicks my butt daily with her cute things and her smart things, sometimes it's both at the same time. I've been to Italy and I've been to France. I've been to Australia and everywhere else in between. But, the place I hold above anywhere else on earth is in Virginia. Imagine that! We always just want to go home. There are so many more things I could tell you about if I had time to sit you down and talk awhile. But, in case I never get that chance, take this with you wherever you go. Don't roam the world looking for the meaning of life. Make a grand entrance and define it for yourself!
