We were just sitting on the couch eating lunch and he goes, 'Daddy you're my best friend.' I almost lost it. Wife caught me getting teary eyed which she will never let me live down but honestly who cares. That kid made my whole year with one sentence.
That's the stuff right there. In our house with four kids it's chaos most days, but those quiet moments on the couch are everything.
Nothing beats it. My twins said the same thing a while back and honestly it's one of my favorite memories. You earned that one.
This is beautiful. Frame that memory because someday when he's a teenager and thinks you're the worst, you'll need to remember this moment.
That's the goal right there. Everything else is just noise. My 3 year old told me the same thing last month and I had to sit in my truck for a minute.

Man, those moments hit different. My oldest said something similar last year and I had to walk away for a minute. You're nailing it as a dad.
