Today is my son Nick's 29th birthday. I love my son so much and am so proud of the man he has become. He provides for his beautiful family, owns a wonderful home and is the kind of father a kid dreams of having. I have always had people come up to me and tell me what a kind young man my son is. There is nothing that makes a father more proud than seeing his son turn into a great man. I see it.

Nick saved my life 29 years ago. I was a young man who was slow at growing up and figuring out what life was all about. I was making bad decisions with no eye on the future. Being a father shook my world and made me wake up and realize that I had an important purpose in life. I was a father. I had to get my stuff together and be an example to a young mind. Nick became my reason for everything. I treasure the memories of taking him to work with me when he was little and having him sit in the studio. He grew up going everywhere with dad. I would still love to take him with wherever I go.
