Miscortes- I am sorry about your father, I haven't seen mine in 10 years. When he was in my life, he was a great father--there is no doubt in my mind that he loved me but unfortunately fell into the world of drugs and alcoholism.
I now have a baby with a man that I have seen first hand be one of the greatest father's in the world- not only because he has been amazing to our 5 month old son, but because his 10 year old daughter from his first marriage calls him her "superman". I have been with him for 5 years now-- and there is not a day that goes by that he doesn't call his daughter, not a day that he doesn't miss her or wish she was with us all the time. Raising a child "part-time" has been the hardest thing in the world for him and even though he gets to spend time with her with any opportunity he gets, he still feels robbed from his little girl's childhood and youth.
I admire men like him, who put their family and children before any night out with their friends, who would rather spend their birthday at home, than go out to party. He runs home after a day of work just to see his son, to play with him and love him. Every single day he asks for new photos or video of our baby--all because he doesn't want to miss a thing. I am lucky to have found a man ready to have children--and his children are lucky to have a dad that truly deserves to be called a father.
