As you go on with life, never regret anything. Everything I've ever done has lead me to having for beautiful children. If I had never gotten on my motor cycle that day I would have never met your mother and you wouldn't be here-dad

I can't wait for the freedom,
Live by my own rules,
No curfew,
Eat whatever I want.
I can't wait for the freedom,
No more sibling fights,
No more fights over the bathroom in the morning,
No more lights on/off fights.
I can't wait for the freedom,
No more little brothers,
None of that "you stole this"
No more movie watching with siblings.
I can't wait for the freedom,
No more early wake up calls on Christmas,
No more Sunday morning football games,
No more hugging.
I.. can't wait for the freedom,
No more comforting,
No more midnight ice cream heists,
No more hugs goodnight.
I can wait for freedom.
