My husband Champ Super Dads I must admit. As a mother, I hide in the bathroom for a few minutes peace and quiet away from my child and the baby. But my husband has never hid in the bathroom or anywhere else for that matter. When it comes to parents, he was fully committed and relentless.
When we were dating and idealistic, I could already see that James would be a great father. One day, we have a picnic and he asked me what I thought I had a dozen children. I thought for sure he joked, but he pressed the issue. As an only child, I thought it was about 10 children more than I could handle. Now, after seeing how my husband looks after our two children with boundless energy and affection, I think he might be able to handle a dozen!
When my 18 month old daughter, stood up in his bed and scream, I send you in the big guns. My husband works there and his chops down like a felled tree. He said sternly: "Go to sleep, as if by magic, it raises here, quiet as a mouse.
When my 3 year old boy is stomping because he has no way my husband did not withdraw and allow the parents to the mother. Not at all - it is ready for the opportunity to teach and correct. One of its slogans is: "Do not create it!" At home, my husband puts our children at the event, teaching them to "shake hands with Dad," "give it back to daddy," "Stop" and "go." Due to the formation of my husband I never had to endure a tantrum at Target or fear for my child to be free of my hands in a parking lot.
Not only my husband a great coach, he knows a good time. In the evening, when I'm sitting at the computer, I'll look down to see a quilt great movement towards me very slowly, with giggles below. When the creatures here are striking distance, the comfort scale upwards to reveal my husband and our little children, ready to tickle me.
You always know when my husband came home from work because the door opens and you hear a loud, jubilant, he-llo! As a Realtor, it has flexible hours and makes a point to spend time with the children every day.
When I asked my father-in-law what it was like to raise four children (my husband was the youngest), his answer was honest. "I missed," he admitted. "I worked too busy." story of my husband will be very different. He knew that love is spelled TIME. When my husband heard Harry Chapin song "Cat's in the Cradle" about a father who was too busy to spend time with his son, he has no guilt. No regrets.
My husband often asks our toddlers, "Are you a champion? Or a great champion? If my son grows to something like his father, he will be a great champion for sure!
