The last couple years I have experienced an overwhelming feeling of responsibility to be a good model for my boys.  Humbly, I have had the extraordinary honor of having a father who has lead and lived an integral life. Who, in gist, has been a great model for me.

Currently I have been re-reading several books on raising boys, specifically a book called, Raising a Modern-Day Knight.

Here are some hard hitting thoughts by the author:

“Many sons have a premonition that they were created for something significant, if only someone [father’s] would notice them. “

The most disturbing quote…

“The most urgent domestic challenge facing the United States at the close of the twentieth century is the re-creation of the fatherhood as a vital social role for men.”

I can’t etch into words the importance of a father’s role in their sons lives.

Dad’s, how are you doing with leading your boys these days?  Make it count!
