That's deep man. Just thought of another thing that building a house and a kid have in common -- they never stop costing you money. Whoa. That’s deep man.

It may take a few tries to get what you want, but with perserverance and enough money you can end up with what you set out to build. It's so much different when building a person. You only have one chance to get the foundation right, then you don't even get to do the finish work yourself. It's much like a Jim Walter Home in reverse--YOU provide the shell, and THEY finish it! All you can do is hope and pray that you gave that person the right blueprints, and that he or she learned to read them. Anyone can build a house.
