How to be a dad.

Step 1: Start your day.

The day starts off with the hardest thing you have to do all day… wake up before everyone and get dressed.

Step 2: Go to work.

But after you get dressed, its nice… you get to go to work!! You get to spend your day being productive, meeting people, making important decisions, changing the world… (at least so it seems to mom at home)

Step 3: Make your way home.

Once you’re done working, you do some errands, (mostly from mom at home, but lets not ponder on that point) then you’re home… at the end of the day.

Step 4: Greet the family.

“Hi wife! Did you brush your hair today?? You really should! You look tired!”

“Hi Kids! Do you want to go play outside? Yeah! Ok! Let’s go… but first I have to go change my clothes. Go stay with mommy, I’ll be right back!”

Step 5: Play with kids.

Next you can go upstairs, use the bathroom, change your clothes, check your email, call your buddy, see whats on TV, and once you hear your wife screaming at you from downstairs, you can come down to play with the kids.

Step 6: Dinner, Bath, Bedtime.

Come in for dinner, help put the kids to bed.

Step 7: Sit, relax, watch TV, play on your computer.

Basically continue what you were doing in step 5 before being called by wife…

And there you go… you are dad.

There is no ‘how to be a mom’ guide… the internet is not big enough!

Ok, so I am a little pissed off upset at hubby… and ‘to blog’ means that I don’t have to pay for therapy!

Disclaimer: Ordinarily, I am pretty fond of hubby… Who is solely responsible for bedtime baths and songs, for doing laundry, and for taking out the garbage. Who does most of the diaper changes when he is at home, who washes dishes most of the time, and who loves his boys. And respect to all dads who are giving fatherhood everything they got! But sometimes, dads can be such ‘men’!
