That’s currently what Isabella loves to yell @ anyone who talks to her now. Maybe I should’nt have made such a big deal of it!

For all that they’ve given me in their short lives, I want to be the best role model they could ask for.

its tough to feel adequate. you could always be doing more, be more involved, somehow be a better dad. nobody tolerates me having personal time anymore, especially me. My 40 – 50 hours at work every week is supposed to be my ‘peronal time.’ Alot of my energy is spent at work so when i’m home i have to make a real effort to keep any energy up. Its tough. she always makes me smile and i love playing with her but i wish i was super dad.
All i can do is keep trying. or at this point keep trying harder. I have to be away tonight but tomarrow i’ll come home and play wityh her for a few hours. take her for a walk. eat dinner with her. read to her. and finally walk her to sleep. I’m not working nights anymore so i have no excuse to just sit there on the couch and watch the fun. i should jump in more.
I’m also worried about moving away. I’m going to live somewhere else for 9 months. shes going to be affected by it… theres no getting around it. i hope she doesn’t forget me and i hope she doesnt loose her bond to me. i hope this whole thing isn’t a mistake.
She has learned these important things (from me):
When Daddy is yelling, saying “Calm down, Daddy” will calm him down.
When Daddy is tickling too much, saying “No means NO!” will stop him in his tracks.
If she doesn’t want to eat his dinner, flattering Daddy outrageously helps: “You’re the BEST Cook, Daddy!”
When she got shoved by another child at school, she held up her hand and said, “I don’t like that!” and ended it.

i asked her if she wanted her bunny doll. or her doggie doll. bunny? or doggie? ‘pick the one you want!’
she dove between them and grabbed on to me!
I have two little girls, 5 and 2 yr old. Although I can say that I am a good father, in all honesty, I don’t like the role model I am to my kids.
Will pray to God for Him to help me show the way to my daughters and prevent them for making the same mistakes I have made in my life.
