Today is Father's Day.
Today is the day to celebrate not the traditional, pipe smoking, sit-there-with-paper-and-drink-while-you-make-the-pot-roast Dad, but the New Dad. The one who changes diapers and puts hair in pigtails and makes time for school concerts. The one who will give the kids a bath while Mom does the dishes. Because, when you think about it, which is the harder job? Anyone can sit there and read the paper. It takes a real man to play Candy Land three times in a row.
Here's to fathers everywhere, especially mine, and especially my kids'. We love them. Today they get the big piece of chicken.

We don't have the game Candy Land here, and if we did Sophia's not really up to that yet! But I'm pretty sure Menard counts as a 'real man'! He's a fantastic hands on daddy.
Hurrah for the real men :)
