I wasnโt there with him, but he still wanted to FaceTime me, do his push-ups and have me count his reps.
That meant more to me than the push-ups themselves.
He wanted to show me what he could do. And somewhere along the way, something weโve been doing together became something he wanted to do on his own. ๐ช
Thatโs the part of being a dad I think about.
You can tell your kids a thousand things, but theyโre going to remember what they watched you do and the things you took the time to do with them.
Iโm not expecting him to grow up and be exactly like me. I just want to give him good habits, discipline, confidence and a standard for himself that he can carry into his own life.
Because little by little, they stop needing you to show them how.
