There are little people in my house
Not as little as before,
Yet compared to me, still small
They’re my boys, Max and Joss,
And they are a great gift
Especially great,
Since we lost two children to ectopic pregnancies
These little people are filled with sweetness and innocence
But enjoy them much, I do not
Distracted I am with the stress of the day
The apparently never ending struggle
Children fighting, whining
My wife’s diabetes
And my own issues with my gut
Detract me from the simple fact:
I have a beautiful family
The universe has blessed my wife and I with two little boys
One day they will be grown
And I will yearn for these times
When Legos and coloring and playing the Wii
Were what was requested of me
It’s not too late to stop and play
Before there are no more wondrous days
Of little people in my house
Possibly there is a better way
To enjoy these precious gifts?
And remember, you are not alone …
Daddy Brain 
Beautiful.
