Instead of writing a book to my 18-year old self, I wrote a book to my 4-yr old twins, describing how I handled, good and poorly, the inevitable challenges they will eventually face.

​

As years go by, it is always good to take some time for personal reflection, what did I do right, what wasn't so right?

​

Now, you can't change the past but you can learn from your experiences to apply the next time you are in a similar situation. 

​

Some things, such as school in your teen years, will not come back in its own form but, imparting my experience to my boys and our readers was important with hopes of leaving a positive impression for others to use when the situation arises. 

​

Not everyone is going to agree with my philosophies, no two people are the same, but if this project gives you pause to think and reflect, then the objective has been achieved.
