Wow man. As a dad, I can just begin to imagine what you're going through. You're in my prayers, and I hope that doesn't sound trite to you because I don't mean it that way. Thank you for this, it encouraged me.

Well said Lyle, we are hoping to start a family soon and I’ve always felt like I needed to be “ready” for it. Thanks for providing some insight into what first time fathers feel like. I would want my kids to be proud of me and I don’t always feel like that about myself. I appreciate you opening up, it makes it easier for me to feel “ready” even though we never really are…

This is such a powerful story, Lyle. I was almost too afraid to comment because I couldn't find any words, but I just want to let you know that I read it and felt it and appreciate you for writing it.
