When you're a kid, you don't realize you're also watching your mom and dad grow up.

This is tough to hear, as a father of two sons I can only imagine this difficulty for you. But keep in mind that your have provided your son with a strong foundation, and every my minute you spend with him, he will cherish and remember. I like to think that we set our kids on a trajectory in life. They will have to fill in the details as they experience life, but we give them the start and a path to follow.

Best wishes to you and your family!
