Woke up this morning to burnt toast, scrambled eggs that were a little crunchy, and orange juice that's definitely watered down. It was the best meal I've ever had. She was so prou
Spent three weekends working with him in the park. Lots of skinned knees and frustration from both of us but something clicked yesterday. I let go and he just kept going. Made it l
Been going to practice all season and he was frustrated because he hadn't scored. Today in the game he got the ball, drove it down field, and BOOM right in the net. Whole team went
My youngest told his buddy that his dad (me) is the strongest dad he knows because I can fix things and I don't get angry. His sister chimed in that I make the best pancakes. Wasn'
My 9yo hit her first home run at softball today and I literally couldn't stop myself from screaming like an idiot from the stands. Her teammates were looking at me like I was insan
Its Mothers Day this weekend and my 6yo wanted to make breakfast for his mom 'all by myself'. I had to just sit back and let him do it even though I was sweating bullets watching h

Been working with him for months and today it just clicked. He did both shoes without any help and the biggest smile on his face. Had to take a pic because my wife was at work. The
I know this probably won't last forever but holy crap I'm riding this high all day. She's 8 and usually prefers mom for everything. I let her have ice cream for lunch and apparentl
After almost a year of dealing with pull ups and accidents, he did it. Full celebration dance happened in the bathroom. I don't care if it sounds weird but I was genuinely proud. W
We've been working on this all summer and today it just clicked. My wife was holding the seat and I was running alongside and then suddenly I just let go and he just kept going. He
Been putting off calling a repair guy because I knew it was gonna be like 300 bucks. My 11yo asked if he could help me look at it. We watched a YouTube video together and figured o
I know it's not even close to Father's Day yet but she insisted on doing it today. She and mom made scrambled eggs (a little runny but I ate every bite), toast with butter and jam,
She was scared of the deep end at the pool so I spent like an hour just being patient with her, showing her I had her back, no pressure. By the end she jumped in the deep end and s
