As I stand next to the bed the day my son is born I wait to hold him for the first time. He stands before me five years later a great little man. How many times I’ve looked at him and thought of how time has gone by so fast.
When I drive up from a long day, here he comes “Dad” is our daily ritual as I give him a big hug and ask him how his day was and what he did. Being a father is scary, thinking of how I can affect the balance of the lives in the house.
Family Love And Trust
Have you ever had a phone call of someone you didn’t want to talk to and you told your child to lie and say your not home? How many times do you mention how great mom or dad is? Do the children know how wonderful your family is? By saying these things on a regular basis gives your family some identity. Children feel more secure in a home that they feel is stable.
Papa Bear Loves Mama Bear
How will your children react to a mom or dad who does not share a loving spirit with one another? Will they expect this from their parents or will they treat their peers or future spouses the same? Children need to know that mom and dad love each other.

Do parents need to be in every inch of personal space? Take a step back and ask yourself if this is something that you need to be into, before you invade their space and damage their trust in you.
A Father’s Bubble
When I tuck in my son I whisper in his ear that I will always be there for him and nothing will ever happen to him. This is how I keep him from thinking he will be harmed by something he can’t control. Does this dribble into other aspects of his life, yes, I’m working on it. He has to fail to learn about failing and succeeding after failure.
Encouraging Your Child
Mom says good job and your child smiles and says thanks mom, dad says good job and touches them on the shoulder and they beam. There is a difference and fathers need to step up and realize their roll. Encouragement comes in many forms; a touch, a look, a hug, encouraging words, little notes for you child. These notes can be in their lunch box, book bag, be creative.
Dad’s Booming Voice
Today I was giving my son a talk when I realized that my ton was a tad much for what he had done. Think about what has happened, is it childish, or foolish, then think if you would like to be talked to in the way you are about to talk to them. Works for me…
