The kids not being able to remember you drinking is just as big of an achievement as not drinking itself. I'll probably never get to meet you and shake your hand, but I am certainly proud of you. My Dad was one of those guys who could do or figure out ANYTHING.....other than how to quit drinking. He was a WW2 Vet, had what I now know was PTSD and had to drink himself to sleep every night that I can remember. He passed when I was 15, and I'm 67 now. I still grieve for the Dad I never really got to know :( Thankfully, your kids will know and remember their real time Dad instead of a drunk Dad. Congrats on 5 years...going on forever!
