Disappointed

I have been a great disappointment to myself, probably to my parents too ... never quite got where I wanted to be.

What a contrast to my three boys. I am so proud of my offspring. Luke, who will be 21 in less than an hour's time, a man who has surpassed every expectation, Adam my second, working hard in University, striving to be the best, and dear Joe ... a one-off, so accomplished and loving ... honed by the struggle of being the youngest.

My boys have certainly made up for any disappointent I feel in myself.
