True Tales for You

Beautiful Boy,

There are people in our family who are (or, in the case of your Granddad,were) good storytellers--your Uncle Curt, your Uncle John, your brother Nate, your cousin Stephanie.  I am not one of them.  Therefore, this blog--I can write it better than I can tell it.

These Tales are in no particular order--just true stories that may (or may not) someday be of interest to you.  Being a little bit older than the usual Dad, I worry that there may not be time to tell you all of them.  I also know with your ADHD that sitting still for long periods of time is not always possible.  You're young, too.  The Who are infinitely more interesting than this--at least for now.

I do not hope you find your inner self  reading this blog.  I don't know that it's necessary.  I do not hope this blog provides explanations.  Life provides very few of them.  I do, however, hope that after reading it you can see all of those who love you most for what we are:  some beautiful but flawed people.

And that life is a roll of the dice.

Love,
Dad
