Positive feedback

Last night Diana told me that her friend says I've already done more for the children than her husband ever did for his children. That kind of made me feel good. I like the recognition and validation.

I wrote to people saying I couldn't come tonight to a party because my son was wanting me around, and a few people wrote back, very touched by my e-mail. Made me feel good that people appreciated that I couldn't come even though I wanted to, and the reason why. Felt good. I like to be recognized for my efforts fathering. I do it anyway, but it helps when the world recognizes my efforts.

I have had positive feedback throughout, but two things in a 24 hour period, and it's not even father's day.
