A lot of very relatable experiences here, as a father myself. I hope he keeps letting you play him guitar. Mine started rejecting that (hopefully not a reflection of my playing).

Mostly just crying whenever I started playing. At some point, holding an instrument means you're not holding them 🤦

This was fun Clancy and you're made to be a Dad. I don't have kids of my own and although in many ways I'm quite pleased I've managed to make it to almost 40 without, there is always gonna be a bit of sadness too. Kids make you truly grow up and like you mentioned, they sorta motivate you to take care. Keep taking care Clancy and keep writing.
