20. Let his dad teach him how to do things
…without interrupting about how to do it the ‘right way.’ If you let his dad show and teach and discover with your son while he is growing up, some day down the road (after a short period of your son believing his dad knows nothing), he will come to the realization that his dad knows everything. You will always be his mother, but in his grown-up man heart and mind, his dad will know the answers. And this will be how, when your son is too busy with life to call and chat with his mom, you will stay connected to what is happening in his life. Because he will call his dad for answers, and his dad will secretly come and ask you.
I love both my boys so much and I cherish all the fun times they have together, I love the way Gus can get Tay laughing and dancing in his room. They have a special connection that I hope grows into a very strong bond that won't be broken. But secretly I hope that kid calls me one day too...
