FATHERHOOD 📿
I know absence well.
And that absence taught me a few things:
how it affects everyone involved differently,
why it occurs,
and how to move with discernment and awareness.
When you grow up experiencing life without something essential,
you learn to recognize it immediately when it’s real.
That’s why I’m sure when I say:
he’s going to be a great dad.
I watched him show up — steady, loving, attentive —
not just for the baby,
but for the mother doing the hardest work of her life.
That kind of presence is fatherhood.
