...You have a kid.It's a son.
You raise him up.
He gets through school.
He gets a driver's license.
He finds work.
He moves out of the house.
He works at something long enough, and likes it well enough, to choose it as a career.
He moves to another state.
He is successful at his career.
He saves his money.
He does what he has to do and then one day, he buys himself a house.
That's right: there comes that magic time when he takes a key and opens the door to his own house on his own property.
It is a milestone.
He has achieved this milestone on his own, at age 28.
As a father, I am filled with joy and no small amount of pride.
Yea!!!
Congratulations, Nick!!
