April 18, 2009 - Dear Dad - soccer

Dear Dad,
As I watched Max run around during his soccer game I thought of you.
I know how much you liked watching me and my brothers play sports.

Now I get it.

There was something magical about seeing Max in his uniform, running up and down the field with a sense of pure joy made me tingle.


It's moments like this that I regret not being able to talk to you. I want to know what moments gave you that same kick. I want to know what you liked about being a dad, what you regret and what you feel when you see your grandson -- or me as a dad.

We never had conversations like these; that's another regret.
