The first time that I saw my daughter after she was born the midwife took her to the baby bed. My mood was very complicated that day. I felt a little afraid and a little excited but mostly happy. Being a father for the first time is very stressful because there are many things to learn and it is hard work. We have to take care of our children every day, worrying about their safety and health. When my daughter was 2 years old and we had a second child, it was even harder. They were both so young and we had to spend double the energy to take care of them. Now, they have grown up a little, so it is not so hard.
They are both very cute and so lovable. We hope that they will grow up quickly, so we don't have to worry about them so much. We hope one day that they can take care of themselves. When my children are asleep, watching them makes me feel very happy. Every day I come back from work and although I am a little tired, when I see the children and our family, I feel that everything is worth it.
