I love my children, they are my family. Every one plus the world know's that their my step children, but that doesn't matter to me. Say something bad about my kid's, it will be like your saying it about my Mother, my Wife, or any member of my family, and I'll correct you real fast. In order of age, there's Robby, who's 26, a great father to Kimberlyn, my granddaughter and a good young man. Like any 26 year old, Robby is living and learning and I'm proud of him. Then there's Jessica, who is 23, who not only share's her Mother's beauty, but also share's her drive and perseverance to achieve any thing she want's out of life. I'm so proud of Jessica, she's getting married in August to a nice young man named Grant. Last, there's Kyle, who is 17. Kyle is a very handsome young man, who happened to become a father while he himself was still a child himself. I believe with all of my heart that every thing will fall in to place for Kyle, and things will go well.
Which lead's me to the introduction of my first grandson, Anthony Owen Buss. I know when the time is right, I'll be bragging just as much about my granddaughter Kimberlyn as I do Anthony. At first I thought, well, this young man is just going to grow up knowing me as his "Step" something. My heart wasn't in it, that was until he learned to talk. Being called "Papa", just melt's my heart. I am Anthony's Papa, and to me that is just as important as being my Mother's son, or my Wife's husband. Anthony doesn't know about "step" this or "step" that. Every thing that my three year old grandson does, he does from his heart, his genuine, little heart. Before I wrap up this blog for today, I want to share that moment that is probably right at the top of my most memorable moment's with Anthony. As many of you know, I have Type 1 Diabetes, which require's several insulin shot's on a daily basis. Anthony, would often come running when he heard I was going to be doing my shot. He would watch with great anticipation as I injected the insulin in to my stomach. The very next day, Anthony said "Papa shot", ran in to his toy box, pulled out his rendition of an insulin syringe, which is his favorite magic marker, stood right next to his Papa and did his shot. This tradition carries on this very day. If that's not enough to melt a grown a man's heart, I don't know what is. So for today Anthony, you are the person that has and always will have a little piece of this old man's heart. Papa loves you. Until tomorrow. Love.
