My 3.5 year old daughter dropped a loud fart at a family function and blamed me for it a while back, made me feel proud :)

My 10 year old daughter won the MVP for her entire basketball division for the second time recently - about 150 girls compete. No idea where she gets it from...I have never played basketball in my life!
My 8 year old son also won won a writing competition...cool!
BUT, the thing that makes me most proud is they say "I love you dad" every night before they go to bed.

My kids and I love the Princess Bride and they routinely say 'Good night. Sleep well. I'll most likely kiss you in the morning', before they close their eyes.

My youngest son (14 months) is going through an intense Daddy phase. While it's annoying that I can't do anything without holding him (brewing coffee one-handed is not easy), it melts my heart when he runs to me through a crowd of people with a big grin on his face, saying "heeeeey." :)

One Saturday this summer, we went blackberry as a family. My oldest son (3) loves blackberries, just like his old man. He of course had to have his own bucket. He was walking around with his bucket, shoving blackberries into his mouth as quickly as possible. Never had more than a few blackberries in his bucket. When I told him they needed to go in his bucket and not his belly, he said "No no, wit's [sic] ok, Daddy. Dey're good." As if that explained everything...

My 9 year old daughter yesterday announced that I had 'devils head' syndrome, and proceeded to continue the conversation by using only the words 'devils head', but maintaining all other aspects of normal speech - intonation, body language, etc. Almost immediately she contracted 'What's Fled?', and we continued for 20 minutes getting dinner ready using only the words 'devilshead' and 'What's Fled?'.

Any advise for a father to be? (practical or otherwise)
Uncharted territory ahead.
- Nope. The best part is learning it all, every kid is unique, getting to know who they are is the thing. Doing stuff for them is 2ry.mikotondria3
- dont worry... thats my best advice, just go with the flow!cruddlebub
- dont let his mum eat cauliflowers - it makes small babies cry :'(
SlashPeckham - Don't stress! Stresshead parents have stresshead kids.Amicus
- cheers lads
I'm as laid back as they come, but this is pretty heavy, even for me.faxion

my son is totally and utterly a daddy's boy, i cant do anything without him being my shadow, cries when i go to work, the lot.
it was at a stage where i couldn't even go to bed at night without him getting up and getting in bed with us everynight... was a nightmare, but he's gotten over that now. kids are brilliant!

I'm pretty proud even though he pretty much only poops, pees, drools, and smiles at this point.
