Re: For fathers: remember when you first became a daddy?
I remember it quite well. It was exactly 37 years and 7 days ago. Ten days after the birth I was in Vietnam. I did not expect to see him again.
Somehow, 28 years later, I was in another delivery room, in scrubs, with 24 medical professionals who were involved in various aspects of the delivery of my 50-day-premature twin daughters. Ten days after the birth, I carried them home. I've never left their side since.
