A Toast to Fatherhood
A toast to fatherhood and the crap people will convince you to buy
Fancy clothes instead of just a one piece sleeper
Newborn clothes which be worn once before being outgrown
Pee-Pee Teepee which will fall off as your kid pees all over you
A baby wipe warmer which will never be in the location you need
A Toast to fatherhood, and the inane things you will find yourself saying:
Don’t put your butt on the patio door.
The Christmas Tree is not a potty!
Don’t mop the tree!
Stop mopping your sister’s head!
Don’t suck your toes until after your bath
Stop drinking the bathwater.
The refrigerator shelf is not a seat
The only person you can hit in the head with a hammer is yourself
Thank you for sharing, but puppies don’t eat with a spoon.
A toast to fatherhood and the indescribable feeling
of getting home at the end of a long day
and having a little one who thinks the world of you
scream out daddy
and come running.
To fatherhood.
