March 30, 2026: The New Title

Certain days stay with you forever.

I can’t remember becoming a brother, but my wedding day is crystal clear. So are the five special occasions when my kids were born.

There were other life-changing moments along the way: son-in-law, brother-in-law, uncle. But then came March 26. That’s when I gained a new title, one that took a lot of years to earn.

I became a granddad.

And it beats a Super Bowl ring or a gold medal by a mile. So if you see me out in the wild, prepare yourself. 

I have pictures.
