Oh wow. There’s no way I can live up to those expectations.

Thanks for the kind words Mike.

I’m proud of you Action Jackson!! One day when I’m a dad I will be calling you for advice I’m sure of it because you have done such a great job with your childen. Plus you and your wife are my role models on how a relationship is to be. I’ve known you for around 16 years and you have always kept me wanting to be more like you..a great man and a great father/Brother/wrestling star and great friend! Keep up the good work and I wish more people where like you.

Thanks Doug! You’re right: there’s an art to both of these things.

There’s an art to wrestling as a dad with your kids. Not too hard but hard enough that it means something. There’s an art to romance (wromance?) too and I think you nailed it with listening. Something along the lines of really seeing and really hearing. Great post Justin.

Ah Justin – you’re a great dad. I love that you’re teaching your daughter how a woman ought to be treated. This is wonderful.
