It was just a little Dr. Seuss book with like 100 words but he did it all by himself. No help from me or my wife. Dude was so proud he wanted to read it again immediately. I may ha
Been working on this all summer. She was so scared of falling and I must have ran behind her for like 50 times holding the seat. Then one day last weekend I let go without telling
We were just sitting on the couch and he randomly said "Dad you're the best dad in the whole universe and maybe even in other universes too." I have no idea where it came from but
