Why are you crying?

by Bryan Comer

He brings an energy to this house. Sometimes is feels like the house is going to vibrate of its foundation because of it, but I like it. He’s always brought an energy and vitality to my life. He’s the reason I made it through some of the dark parts of my life. When I didn’t like who I was or what I was letting happen to me, he made me laugh..and want to be a better dad.

I should be there. I should be there every time he wakes up. I should be there every time he gets home from school. I should be there everytime he does his homework. I should be there when he goes to sleep.

I’m not.

That’s why I sometimes cry after I take him home.

    WISCONSIN:

    You mentioned cheese curds!

    The best come from the proclaimed “Cheese Curd Capital of Wisconsin” in Ellsworth, Wisconsin. The Governor of Wisconsin gave them that title! They are so squeaky good! Their cheese is ALL NATURAL and is made from rBST free milk. They are so yummy!

    They do have a web site http://www.ellsworthcheesecurds.com and sell fresh and lightly, hand-breaded cheese curds. They sold 104,000 lbs to the Minnesota State Fair last year and have been selling to state and county fairs for over a decade! They are also in A&W Restaurants. If you go to a Milwaukee Brewers home game at Miller Park you can buy the breaded cheese curds there. These cheese morsels remain the color of milk: White!
    (Have you ever drank a glass of orange milk?)

    You can even purchase breaded cheese curds – and deep fry at home. Or if you purchase one of their fresh cheese curds packages (Deli section of Cub Foods for example) there is a very simple recipe on the back of the package - it is so easy to make your own batter with only FOUR common ingredients. Additional recipes are on their web site.

    Found fresh in many grocery stores… Remember to microwave for just 15 seconds to bring out the rich cheddar flavor and its trademark SQUEAK! Or go to their creamery on-site store and walk out with a package of WARM, FRESHLY MADE cheese curds…

About Sympathy Pain

The "Sympathy Pain" blog is a father's view of what is generally viewed as "woman only" territory, pregnancy. The blog also looks into the blended family and how a new addition affects that family. "Sympathy Pain" is not a battle of the sexes sight, but rather, an open forum for moms and dads.
