This is My Son. Kylen Dimo Baccam



And he, he would be my firstborn Kylen (Dimo) Baccam. I say firstborn because he's my 4th child that has made it (RIP twin babies Koungvan and baby Johnson). At first I won't lie, I denied it, I denied him being my son, being my own blood. Stories and rumors around his mom made me believe he couldn't have been. Attitude and personality changes furthered my doubts. But there was still a chance that he could have been mine. The day he was born, I went to the hospital to see him, only to get kicked out, pushed out by security. The first couple days I still had my doubts, with his big nose which I later realized were his moms, and his eyes. But as he grew it was more noticeable, his eyebrows,forehead, lips, cheeks, yep, it was mine, there was no question about it. I'm happy that he is, honestly words can't really describe how it feels, its like a whole new world full of possibilities and expectations. A whole new perspective on life.

And just like that, I became a dad, and I'll keep being a dad. I'm not getting back with his mom but I am staying in touch with her and with my son. We have a good relationship and I plan on keeping it how it is. I'm actually glad that she's the mom and not some girl who would have just wanted my kid just to say its mine. (chicks poking holes in my condoms and shit)
I'm glad its Kathi, she's a great mom and has a huge bright future ahead of her. I don't plan on getting back with her, but I plan on helping her out in anyway that she needs.

With Kylen I've found a new source of inspiration, musically, he motivates me to keep pushing forward, to keep fighting for my goal, to keep tackling problems and move ahead. To keep walking on. I'm not just feeding myself, my own ego, my own goals, but now I got to look out for my own, to find a source of income to be able to pay his dues and the things he needs. Because I know in the end its all worth it.
