Nah-Ahhh!

All I want to say is that there are two sides to every story. Recently I recieved a promotion to Superintendent of Recreation for our county, but since my old position is still a part of our department, I've been essentially doing two jobs for the last 3 weeks. Couple that with the World Series being in town and I really had a lot of pressure on me over the last couple weeks.

The guys that run the World Series have become some very good friends of ours and I admit that at points during the week I spent some time enjoying myself with them. However, I far from abandoned my post in fatherhood.

The main issue was the one night when I woke up to my beautiful bride feeding my beautiful daughter. Instead of talking gently to her as she fed her, she was commenting on just how, and I quote, "F'ing Worthless your father is" and "he would rather booze it up with the boys than spend time with his daughter".

Now in the moment, I completely understand her frustration. I would be irritated too if I just couldn't wake her up to help me out, but I don't know if I would exhibit such extreme behavior. Nevertheless, we have moved past it and did so very quickly that night, I might add.

I have now resume full daddy responsibilities and even got home tonight at 5:00!!! I think this was the first time that has happened since I recieved my promotion and I was psyched about it!

Last weekend was AWESOME!!! With all the work I've been doing, I really have been missing my girls A LOT! Well on Saturday, Julia and I had our first official Daddy Day. Courtney became our sugar-momma for a day, working a lacrosse tournament and we spent the day together.

The funniest part was when I called Courtney early in the day to make sure I was following the schedules that she had been setting for Julia. After that, I think Courtney called to check in about every hour! I think that she missed her shopping buddy!

I can't blame her...I know how she felt!
