CoT – my oldest son, Jack, turned 13; the teenage phase has begun. One of the many cool things about F3 is talking to dads with kids older than mine and younger than mine. It helps me prepare for what’s ahead and remember the recent past when they were toddling around and appreciate the present moment. Grateful for F3, to be a dad, for all my kids and esp for Jack.
