My Dad is not a great Dad.

My Dad was not a great Dad.
He had his faults.
He had his weaknesses.
He made mistakes.
We had our own little fights.
Or big fights. Lots of big fights.

But I must admit,
flawed as he may be.
He did step up and helped me
when I needed him most.

My Dad was not a great Dad.
To me, he was awesome.

Someday, my son and I will have our own arguments.
Our own little tiffs.
But someday, I would like to be there for him,
when he too, needs me most.

I miss him right now,
and it really, really sucks.

Father’s Day ‘08

Each and every one of us,
would like to give our children the same opportunities we had when we were kids.
If not better.

That also go with our parents’ teachings and life’s lessons.

So what lesson can I give my son,
that is better than what I learned from my folks?

Well, for one,
I was taught to always wash my hands
after I use the bathroom.

So today,
I teach my son,

Not to pee on his fingers.


Man!
I reek with Geniusness!

Happy Father’s Day!

I am Big Bird!

Got this from Nikki

Hmm. I wonder why I ended up as him?

You Are Big Bird

Talented, smart, and friendly… you’re also one of the sanest people around.

You are usually feeling: Happy. From riding a unicycle to writing poetry, you have plenty of hobbies to keep you busy.

You are famous for: Being a friend to everyone. Even the grumpiest person gets along with you.

How you live your life: Joyfully. “Super. Duper. Flooper.”

There’s More!

Role Reversal

While Tyler and I were watching TV,
I got up to go to the bathroom.


Tyler: Daddy, where are you going?

Me: I have to go pee-pee.

Tyler: You go pee-pee?

Me: Yes. I’ll be right back okay?

When I got back and sat by the couch;

Tyler: Daddy. You go pee-pee in the potty?

Me: Yes, I did.

Tyler: Good job, Daddy. Good job.
(as he nods and taps me on the head)

You know what’s really weird?

After that assessment from Tyler,
I feel like I deserve a treat.

So I got up and got me a cookie.

Isn’t that bizarre?
