this little post offers a wonderful description of the joy and pain of watching your baby become a person, but of course applies more to mothers than fathers, but this bit is a special slap in the face:
The idea that I once felt this with my own mother is wild to think about, and really sad because where is that now? I have faint memories of loving the way she smelled, too, and of wanting to rub my face on her upper arm, or remarking on how soft her skin was. Does she still feel that way with me? I can’t even think about it….
Or maybe you will think: I have been there, I have had that haircut, or I have asked for it and gotten something far worse. Or, I have also thought disparaging things about Corporate America! I, too, am surprised to see Dave Chappelle in this movie!
