Father's Day Post

[dannyboy420]

I'm just about to turn 30, and have a 1.5 year old.

Being a father is just about the toughest thing ever. It is not so much that each individual responsibility is difficult, but in this case, the whole is mightily greater than the sum of its parts.

My wife commented to me that being a parent is a lot like being a prisoner of war: you're denied uninterrupted sleep; you're subjected to loud, piercing noises (usually at odd hours); you're often in a filthy and smelly environment; someone is always yelling at you; and there is no reprieve in sight. She's right.

And yet, would I change it all if I could? Never!

It's weird how that is.

Happy Father's Day to all the fathers.

Happy Father's Day to my wonderful dad and to my wonderful husband, both of whom are exceptionally good and loving fathers. Wish they could teach the world!

DannyBoy, it is like being a prisoner of war, especially during the baby and toddler phase. When he gets a bit older, it'll get easier, I promise. That's wonderful that you love it nonetheless.

Happy Father's Day to all the dads here on the boards!

Happy Fathers day to all the Dad's on here! And my Dad who I respect more than anyone in the world, never in my life have I ever met such a genuinly good person as him, always honest, hardworking, caring, and non-judgmental. I look up to him so much and I hope to someday have some of the qualities he posses. And to my grandfather who like my dad is an amazing person, people like them are rare and I'm honored to be related to them.

Those use to be the reasons why I didnt want any kids, but now that I have my son (1.5 yrsold), when I see him smile and I see how happy he is, changing diapers or getting up many times in the middle of the night dont even bother me none...

The toughest part about being a father is spending all my time at work and not with my son......

I told my daughters that the best thing that they could do for me on this day is to not mention it one time...

so, what does my 11 year old do..she makes me a card..damn kids. LOL
