I never (ever) wanted kids


I recall sitting in my dorm room at Indiana University thinking about traveling the world. I was gonna hit several of them countries in Africa, make my way over to Italy, swing by Germany and any where else my curious self could go. I don't think I ever really cared about making money, I just knew our creator created a huge and beautiful planet and I was gone be dog gone John P. Col train for sure gonna see it!. Well Mom's got sick due to a serious stroke and I had to step back on my plans to take care of her for 3 years before she passed in death. I didn't mind helping her cause that was my best friend.
Well time went by and I got back on track. I decided that I need to get some extra skills so I got that Barbers license so I could make some change whilst I walked the Earth like I was Kung Fu! Shoot I am a black man who enjoys the finer things in life, ya know like........FOOD! I mean I gets to shaking and light headed if I don't gets my two taco's and french fries and a peach, but that's another blog-lol!
Oh yeah, about them kids. Just because I never wanted kids, does not mean I don't love my girls with all my heart, cause I do! I guess if I knew my kids, would be the two I got, I would have reconsidered, then again somebody stole my piece of chicken...humm. Kids have taught me lessons that I could have only got from them. They showed me how to laugh at slamming my finger in the silverware drawer, that feeding the ducks is fun, that watching a movie a million times can still be entertaining and they taught me that the best things in life are free. The biggest joy has to be showing me that they are whatever I am. If I am good, so they will be and if I am nothing etc. I never (ever) wanted kids, but I am glad that it turned out this way, because lets face it...... I am a good at this Dad thing-lol.... Hold on a minute (yelling in the background) I see that chicken in your back pack sucka!!

I am Daddy Ward....
