The begining of a Fathers Journy

Hey Dads,
This is the start of a blog for fathers, the pride, joy and hardship that go with the title Dad. I am starting this because I am filled with wonder and hope for the future as I look upon my second son who was just born, and my two-year-old son, and realized that I consider one of my greatest strengths as being a Dad. I love the look of complete trust that is in both of their eyes when they look at me. However it is much more then this, since becoming a father two years ago, I had realized that being a Dad is one of my greatest strengths, one that I am very proud of. My hope with this blog is to share not only my experience as a father, but also to give support and encouragement to all fathers, be they expecting, new, or experienced. This blog is for you.
So on to a little bit more about me, my wife and I have been married for six years, and had our first child in September of 2007. He is very much two right now, in that his favorite word is “No” and that making a mess with just about anything is easy for him. Funny enough while his use of the word “no” is sometimes annoying; I have found that his imagination and ability to learn quickly is something that fills with me wonder on a daily basis.
My youngest was born just after Thanksgiving and is now a month old. Truly there is nothing better then holding the new life that we have brought into this world in my arms. I know just by looking at him that his is going to be different from his big brother, and yet knowing that I am going to be able to watch both of them grow and learn together is something that is very exciting.
So here is to us Dad’s as we embark on the greatest adventure that we know, the challenge of teaching our children and being a dad.

A fellow Father.
