It hasn’t been easy finding the time to grow AmericasFootprints.com and balancing it with time for Ryan.  But I am grateful to have the opportunity to spend as much time with him as I do.  In my previous career as a trainer, I was fortunate enough to be home more often than at work.  And now having AF gives me even more time at home with him.  I don’t use this phrase very often, but I feel extremely blessed to be able to share so much of his childhood where most other parents either don’t care, or physically can’t do it because of their work schedule.
