Parenting
March 10th, 2007 |OK, so this parenting thing seems to be going along just fine.
Little Baby Smithers is now 15 months old and he and I are getting along great. I was worried before he showed up about whether I would be a good dad or if he would cry every time he laid eyes on me. But I seem to be able to make him laugh at the drop of a hat and he is always ready to come over and dole out some hugs my way.
I don’t have any urges to beat on him either, so I guess I am not going to turn out to be one of those crazy abusive dads who teach their kids to fear gown ups. Sometimes I make a mean face and tell him that I am going to give him a spanking. He just laughs at me and I laugh back. It’s hilarious.
