Welcome To The Fatherhood
Many believe being a parent is the hardest job on earth. I disagree. Being a parent is as hard or easy as you make it. In all honesty, parenting is little more than being the best person you can be and setting a good example for your children.
We may have more vested in parenting than our other jobs, but when we let life unfold without trying to control every aspect, it becomes a blissful, rewarding experience all the way around.
Don’t get me wrong, people disagree with my parenting style all the time, but when they see how happy my children are and how happy I am when they are around, they have little to argue with. I take these disagreements with a grain of salt because I want to continue improving my parental abilities, but I tend not to change my style much over time.
For now, I’m content with happy kids and hopefully in my time here, I can help you do the same.
For previous readers of this blog, I’d like to welcome you to the new fatherhood and thank Mark for creating a nice community with excellent posts and resources. I hope to maintain the quality of his work and maybe even find a way to get even more readers involved.
Thanks for having me, talk to you soon.

Aaron, nice to have you here. What happened to Mark?
I personally think that parenting becomes fun and fulfilling when we put our hearts to it, when we are committed to being the best.

Thanks for the welcome Abel.
Mark had some family engagements that required more of his time and so here I am.
I couldn’t agree with you anymore about commitment. Like all things in life, that which we put our passion into and aspire to grow with, are usually those we enjoy most regardless of how “difficult” they may be.
