“Rejoice with your family in the beautiful land of life!” – Albert Einstein
These are my source of joy, happiness and pride-- my very own family. The eldest Clarence Alec is just two years old, my second child Seth Liam is just one year old and the youngest Gabe Steffano is barely three months old, our three little kings in the family. They give so much fun, joy and happiness in our family not to think the noise as well whenever they start to cry and shout all together at once around the house.
Well, kids they are what they are. At their tender age they are so adorable and cute and I make most of my time enjoying with them while I can and while they are still young because by the time they will grow up it might be a different story then. It might not be possible for me then to cuddle and hug them for they will become busy with their own life in their adult years.
Their childhood comes only once and I would like to give them the best childhood I didn't have when I was young. Time flies so fast that sometimes one can hardly notice and I don't want them to feel that they didn't enjoy much in their childhood years instead they will come to me with full of bitterness and regrets. God forbid.
I love my three little boys no matter what. Though at an early age my wife and I can already notice the differences of personality the three of them possess but that what makes the three of them so unique. At some level they are the same because they are brothers who inherited my genes but at some level as well they are so different. Clarence the eldest is the hyperactive, the mischievous and the naughtiest among the three while the middle child Seth is friendly, obedient type of kid, and a kind person who would always say sorry whenever he makes mistakes and so much preoccupied with food. While the youngest Gabe who is barely three months old is yet to be known but his face is a combination of his two elder brothers Clarence and Seth. They may be different individually at some point from each other but after all they are all my boys. And forever they will be and always will.
According to Barbara Bush,"family means putting your arms around each other and being there." Yes that is so true, in good times and in bad times, in sickness and health family is always the first and there's nobody we can count of the most in our lowest times to put their arms around us and to be there for us no matter what but our very own family. At the end of the day family is everything. It begins in the family and it ends in the family.
I am irhey and this is my family, my truest bundles of joy, happiness and pride.
Cheers!
