Yes the importance of the day increases with age at least to me. I get to reflect on the good as well as the bad. Hopefully the good far out weights the bad.

I know I tried to be a good father in all ways. Still do. Absolutly nobody is perfect is a reality in this world as well.

It also is a little more difficult to maintain family unity today when your children and grandchildren land up all over the place. Some you see far less than others is pretty much unavoidable.
