Pride of Ownership

Last night, Lucas came into bed with us since he wasn't feeling well. He lay down, and we were about a foot apart, face-to-face. His eyes were closed, and he was breathing somewhat heavily. I lay there looking at him for several minutes when suddenly, he opened his eyes. He saw me watching him and immediately a huge smile appeared on his face. A couple of moments passed and then he leaned forward and gave me a kiss.

At that moment, all the trials and tribulations of being a parent flew out the window. At that moment, I was just so happy to be his dad.
