Dad, Dad, Dad
I admit. I don't know if I feel like a real father. I'm not sure I have that daddy feeling or touch. I mean, I can easily forget that Hannes sleeps at 10. His afternoon nap could slip my mind and every time Jessica asks me if I have changed Hannes's diapers - and I haven't - I feel like whatever is in the diapers.
Now, mind you, I am not saying that I am a bad father, because I know I'm not. I'm just saying that I don't know if this is what a father's supposed to feel, you know. When Theo was, like, 2, did
Heathcliff Huxtable ever forget to change his diapers? Did
Pa Ingalls ever forget to make sure Laura drank enough?"
I don't know. Claire Huxtable and Ma Ingalls were the smart ones in their families, anyway.
Fortunately for me, and Hannes, Jessica is like Claire and Caroline: a smart Mom.
