Great interpretation of the challenges faced in parenthood. Love.
The man at the store was so insistent on choosing the tough option. He told me his story about raising three sons and how it changed his life. Now he worked here [at the store], he had holes in his walls, but he knew how to fix them all. I agreed that tough was the best choice. I opened my hand and he dropped the door stop into it. It was like a changing of the guard.
