Savvy Daddy Blog

Being the new kid on the daddy blogoblock, I decided last night to head on over to DBR's for a drink and to meet the other dads who somehow find the time to blog.

Oh yes, this was the weekend. The weekend of just me and my tot, me-me. Just the two of us. Mommy's at work. In-Laws and friends are tied up. Two feelings come to mind: OH what fun!!!! and OH crap!

I parrot-perch my daughter onto the edge of my knees and begin wrestling her ten tiny fingers so I can trim her nails. Squirming and worming all over my lap she yelps at me, “Daddy, EASY!”

“I know, sweetheart, you don’t like this, but we have to trim them so we don’t cut your little sister.”
