Fatherhood at 50 will change your life. Changes like swapping golf clubs for poopy diapers, fine dining replaced by macaroni and popsicles and your darling child wiping her nose on your slacks just before you leave for a client appointment. When you are a grumpy person because the world seems an increasingly insane place, when you long for nothing more than peace and quiet while Barney blares nauseating songs on TV, your kids climb on you like monkey bars and smear jelly fingerprints on your tie, what happens when they look up at you with big clear eyes and ask Daddy, can we go on a golf cart ride? When you hide in your office because you've had enough kiddie stuff to last a month and are just about to scream, what happens when your little girl disobeys and sneaks in the door to give you a hug? I'll tell you what happens - you are redeemed. These are stories of redemption by children. There are also stories of a father telling his daughters the lessons he learned from life, and telling them about the two young men who risked their life to rescue him in the Vietnam war long ago.
