Let's hear it for the boys! My family is celebrating our second Father's Day. In just one year, my husband, a mountain man at heart, has transformed into a diaper changer, nursery song singer, peek-a-boo master, boo-boo kisser...... It has been a joy not only watching our girls grow month to month but also my husband grow into the best father any gal could ask for.
To all the Dads, I hope your day is filled with joy and celebration. Here are few inspiration quotes about fatherhood to brighten up your day.
"Having a kid is like falling in love for the first time when you're 12, but every day." -Mike Myers
"When I hear people talk about juggling, or the sacrifices they make for their children, I look at them like they're crazy, because 'sacrifice' infers that there was something better to do than being with your children." - Chris Rock
�Fatherhood is great because you can ruin someone from scratch.� � Jon Stewart
"My daughter said, 'Why are you yelling at us?' and I said, 'I�m trying to discipline you!' And then she looked up at me with her tear-stained eyes and said, 'This is how you teach children, by making them cry.' And it was such a clenching reminder -- she won not only the argument, but she won life with that statement. I just burst out laughing, and I think they were so surprised that I burst out laughing, that they did too.� - Stephen Colbert
�If I can walk around in my underwear and pull it up super high so it�s just gross looking and then try and be very serious with them. I like to do that � pretend to be very mad and have my underwear hiked up � really high.� - Paul Rudd
"I want my son to wear a helmet 24 hours a day." - Will Arnett
"Having a staring contest with a newborn is one of the weirdest things you will ever do. And it is highly recommended." - Ross McCammon
"I'm leaving town cause my children are acting too much like me." -Richard Kind
"Be a dad. Don't be 'Mom�s assistant.' That's depressing, just waiting for her to write you a list, walk around a store staring at it, calling her from the cereal aisle to make sure you got the right thing. Be a man. Make your own list. Fathers have skills that they never use at home. You run a landscaping business and you can�t dress and feed a 4-year-old? Take it on. Spend time with your kids and have your own ideas about what they need. It won�t take away your manhood; it will give it to you. I did that. I spent more time with my kids. And I found out that I�m a pretty bad father. I make a lot of mistakes and I don't know what I'm doing. But my kids love me. Go figure." - Louis C.K.
