Great article Duke!
I wish I could do it all over again with you boys with what I've learned since I had the extreme privilege of having you both at home! I would have loved to home-school both of you; we could have learned so much together in the process. I think not only would we have learned the three R's, we would have learned many of life's and Nature's lessons, too.
I think you mentioned that you weren't a great kid...I beg to differ. You boys were such a source of great joy! I wish I would have shared more with you boys instead of living in my low self-esteem world trying to please the wrong people at the cost of a great childhood for you both!
You both are such GREAT men in spite of poor parenting on our parts...I will always know the mistakes made and I also know that regret won't fix a thing...I just have the honour of seeing what great men you both are and having the honour of being your Mother!
