The Joy of a Son

I remember when my son was born. I remember how apprehensive I was. All kinds of thoughts went through my head. What if I'm not a good father. Will I be close to him? will he be afraid of his daddy? what is he going to look like? What is his personality gonna be?

Then I saw the nurses pull him out and he was so long and so cute. He was crying and the nurses asked me to cut his umbilical cord. Then after the nurses cleaned him up, he just lay there with his thumb in his mouth, sleeping. I had never seen something so beautiful in my life. and I thought..that is actually my son. wow! Right there and then I fell in love with James Amani Karoki.

Within the second week he was smiling and he has been smiling ever since. He loves playing the drums I got him for his birthday. He loves listening to AKON and dancing with his dad in the living room while boppin' his head. He's got the moves.

my son and I are very close. I love him more than life itself and he loves his daddy the same way. For a long time, Amani would not go to sleep unless I was home. He would wait for my shift to be over and it was wonderful seeing him after a long day of dealing with criminals. He made life seem innocent.

He cries when we say goodbye and always says, "I love you daddy." and kisses me on the lips. The joy of having a son. I could wish for nothing more.
This blog is for you Amani, I love you and may you have the best in life baby.

Love,

dad.
