Perhaps a beginning…
This is Dad here.
I was so inspired by my daughter’s post. Months have past since my last post. After talking to dear brother from Portland, OR today, I was struck that my view of life has changed quite significantly even dramatically in the last three months. I cannot share it all on the blog, but I am amazed at where God’s taken me in recent months.
Through a process of brokenness and recognition of unhealthy past patterns and finally amazing friends, I am learning a new way to live life with my wife and children. I cannot describe how much I’ve been blind to and now am beginning to see. The pain of the process has been profound and yet isn’t that what if often takes for us particularly me to embrace a significant change in the way I love and live.
I am so grateful for the faithfulness and perseverance of my wife. She is truly a gem of a woman, a mother, an artist, and child of God. I couldn’t have made this journey without her listening ear, her strength of character, and commitment to God and to me.

Thanks for sharing. I’ve tried several responses, but they all sound trite. Life altering experiences are so unique, and yet similar. We recognize the place you are talking about.
