Chapter 1

The House That Built A Man

I'm a man that built a house. For 2 years, I worked straight, day and night, making sure everything was just right.

Some might call me old-fashioned. But I'd like to think that I'm just a man who tried to do what's right.

Building a house for my bride? That was what we needed, and it was what was right. So I did. For two years straight, when most guys my age were out partying or starting to establish themselves in their jobs, I worked on that house. Making sure I measured twice and cut once.

And I did it over and over again. For two long years, I built that house.

Honey, I'll be out in a minute. I just want to walk through the house one last time before we go. I tried not to let her see me tear up as I walked through the house I'd built.

I paused at the kitchen pantry door, my fingers tracing the lines that marked my kids' heights over the years. Each line was a milestone, a memory of laughter and growth. I could almost hear their excited voices, Look how tall I am, Daddy!

In the living room, I lingered by the old table, the epicenter of countless family game nights. I could still hear the echoes of laughter, the playful banter, and the sound of dice rolling. It was here that we bonded, where we learned to win and lose with grace.

The tree in the backyard, carved with my daughter's youthful loves, caught my eye. I remembered her running to me, tears streaming down her face after her first heartbreak, and how I held
