Today I posted in the other blog about how Analee is learning compassion and I wanted you to know, I think she is learning that from you. In fact, I think the ability for a 5 year old to be compassionate is pretty impressive-and I think she gets it from you.
Thinking about other people doesn't exactly come naturally to me. But you have a wonderful capacity to look at a person and see what is inside their heads and behind their actions. (One of the super-cool qualities that I think will make you a great teacher to teens and pre-teens).
I want you to know that I am proud of Analee. And I'm proud of her for being like you.
I know you worry, so let me say it again.
You are a good dad. You have not only given our daughter your talent for loving people but are teaching her how to use it.
I'd go on but a short guy just started crying.
I love you, John.
Thanks for being you.
