The post below is inspired by a contest held over at www.Chalkboarddad.com
“You will have between now and midnight on Friday to write a one hundred word post inspired by that word. Entries can be less than one hundred words, but they cannot be more. Posts must focus on some aspect of parenting. Even though I call this the Father 100, moms are encouraged to join us!”
You’re introduced to LOVE from the moment you’re born. Look into the eyes of your mom and dad and there is LOVE. It comes back again in the eyes of your spouse and yet it’s different and it’s LOVE. Your first baby is born, looks into your eyes. You return the gaze and right there, it’s instant, it’s deeper, and it’s LOVE. When your second child is born they too look into your eyes for their first time and see it. Just when you think there’s no more, it awakens, it breathes, it’s deeper still, it’s full, and it’s LOVE.
Something for you – “Any man can be a father. It takes someone special to be a dad”. I bet you love your family so much. You’re one hell of a dad
Yeah, Ted Rubin posted that comment on Twitter this week as well. Very well said. I wrote a post some time ago focusing on being a Dad vs. a Man. http://www.dadstreet.com/?p=87
this? is awesome. nicely done!
Thank you very much! I wrote it having to keep to the 100 word limit! It took me quite a few times editing it before I could make it and I did! It's exactly 100 words! lol
Yes, but that’s the point, to practice word economy. I thought you did a great job.
Be sure to join us again next week!!
Thank you! What a great contest you put on as well. It was very hard!
