A Gift To a Father

My Children Beauty...resilience...timelessness...strength the facets of a diamond, each cut differently reflecting the light giving it a value. Children are a gift each a treasure, all have a value that is beyond measure. Individuality...skill...talent...personality traits of all - each child cut differently from the other. Measured like a diamond cut a trait apart, their strengths added together, become a family. How blest as a Father we all are.

I only had two and they are as different as night and day. But I wouldn't trade either of them! Nice one Richard, children make life worthwhile!
