i always thought i would make an okay one,
you know?
believing you could do it
and actually doing it
are two totally different things.
i remember watching you push him on the swings
and seeing the joy in his face
was something really special.
i wanted to be more involved
but i didn’t want to make things weird,
you know?
but then,
his little hand grabbed mine
and i got to chase him around the park.
i knew then
that there was nothing i wanted more
than to be something like that
for him.
