is it really so odd for a new father to care about his child? is it so odd that he doesn't mind waking up in the middle of the night to feed and comfort her? i'm confused. i thought that this is what being a parent was about. do tell

*scratches head* i don't get it... i honestly don't understand how someone could be that way. i mean even putting emotions aside..i have a vested interest in how she grows up. there's a lot of time, energy, and money involved in raising a child, ya damn skippy i'm interested in how she grows up. too bizzarre

Really?

I thought it was about disappearing for 14 years and showing up to get credit for taking care of someone they hadnt seen in years.

I like your approach better.

[come_undone]

ya..me too. i think of it as my chance to help a person of my own blood to take the right paths in life.

Are you kidding, you wait anxiously for 9months to meet this being that you have helped create...they give you that "I know who you are" look...you instantly become their slave...and you get rewarded with slobber, and dirty stinky diapers and big toothless smiles....

*sigh* and you consider yourself one the luckiest people alive.

[come_undone]

yup that's me...the luckiest dad in the world (meanwhile i'm gagging while changing her diaper *chuckle*)

lol...you make me want a baby...*gets cracking* oh wait...I need my boyfriend for that...*starts practicing* baby poop I thought only smelled bad after they started eating solid foods?

[come_undone]

shiyat...(no pun) once it becomes solid, usually after the first week, and turns yellowish, it start stinking...BAD. it doesn't stink at first because her body, a. doesn't have any real impurities (actually i learned that the first few poops are completely sterile) and b. her body absorbs just about everything it can. but once it starts off-loading dead cells and tissue, and other impurities, heh..bettah covah yo nose

oooooo so beautiful *big grin* thank you for sharing...

single dads are so underappreciated I think.

[ex_ly656]

nope.. especially not for you
knowing you, i expected you to be such a good daddy :)

[come_undone]

*smiles* awww...

i guess i have a problem because i know how she makes me feel and how those feelings demand action, and i can't imagine how anyone could want anything less for their own.

don't waste your energy babe.. your angel is blessed to have you, and you are blessed to have her, and every moment you spend with her is precious.. that's all that matters :)

good point...you are so right...

i guess i'm starting to understand why families are so distraught in this world...i never quite got it until now...i mean my father and i have some beef, but i never doubted that he loved me
