Who are Your Children's Role Models? Where do you draw the line?Being a single father of two growing girls, the task at hand is quickly growing at a pace that I struggle to keep up with. Every girl needs a mother, but sadly many do not have their mother in their life, as is the case with my girls. My oldest daughter is eleven going on twenty. She can't wait to grow up, in fact, if she had it her

YOU'RE ELEVEN RIGHT?I remember talking with my oldest daughter only a couple of months ago. She was asking me all these questions about womanhood and training bras and I was caught by suprise.

SCHOOLS BACK - My kids are back in school and the house feels a bit empty during the day. I notice only, because I work from my home. Faith just started 5th grade and she seems suprised if she asks me a math question , that sometimes I'm really not sure of what they really want to know. I was always good at math, but the other day she asked me a question and I had no clue what they were talking
