Re: For fathers: remember when you first became a daddy?
Mine is 5 now and I remember pretty much everything about those days. The thing I find amazing is, he is pretty much the same kid as the one we brought home from the hospital. You wouldn't think babies have personalities, but they do, and they pretty much don't change.
Before he was born, he kicked and kicked, so much so my wife was on Darvocet the last two months. It was constant, like he would never sleep. We bring him home, he's asleep in the crib, and there goes the right leg. Kick, kick, kick. You feed him, there goes the right leg. Kicked his right big toenail off by the time he was 6 months old. We finally figured out he kicks when he's happy, and he kicks to this day if you read him a story or give him one of his favorite foods.
He's going to be the worst poker player in the world if anybody bothers to look under the table.
