I have a New fascination; my daughter. She was born on New-Years Eve. Happy New Year! Certain new years resolutions I was going to make got replaced with the only one that now mattered; 'Be that best father I could be.'
The fascinating thing about having your own child is certainly NOT the sleepless nights, the screaming, or the nauseating nappy smells, but it is looking at her little face and hands; they move! Her eyes look at me; her father. It is still extraordinary to say, "I am a Dad."
I read a lot in preparation for being a dad, some of it helped and I recommend reading them to any expectant fathers.
