The joy of having a child is pretty new to me. I'm 32, a single father and being a Dad is the best!
The biggest reason why being a Dad is so important to me is because before I was even born, my Father passed away. So for me, Owen is a chance at something I felt I never had and always wanted. Basically, Owen is me if I had an awesome Dad growing up from the time I was born!
My son Owen is now almost two years old and starting to become loads of fun! I mean, he's always fun but as each day goes by he's more coordinated, energetic, verbal, etc and it's so cool to watch my boy develop!
I now understand all the movies when parents worry so much about their children, I definitely take things more seriously. I didn't worry so much about when I didn't have a son, like Covid-19!
My goal right now is to spend as much quality time as possible when I do have my son.
Since I'm a single Dad, I don't have him all the time so when I do I want to have everything ready, house clean and nothing else to do but play with my toddler!
I like to play with Owen so he can learn how to play in new ways when he's not with me if his mom isn't already playing with him the same way. I really love to watch him smile and mock me sometimes, there are so many moments of absolute cuteness!
Cuteness is another word that should exemplify how I've changed by becoming a parent. That word didn't even exist for me in the past, but man my boy is so darn cute!
I am so excited for my son's future ahead. Since it was such a tough road to be in his life, it seems even more rewarding every moment I spend with him. Having split custody is unlike how I imagine it is for other Dads, because when I'm with Owen I love every single second!
I really hope Owen learns from my mistakes and becomes a much better man than I could dream of being. Really I just want him to be happy with whatever he is doing. I plan to give him all my Crypto, so let's hope he'll never have to worry about money!
The biggest thing I hope for Owen's future is how much love we'll have for each other. I know it sounds cheesy, but it's the truth! I also hope to make Owen the best man and that includes principles, values and all the qualities of being an awesome trustworthy dude!
The last thing I'll mention about being a Dad is I like to hear from other Dads, especially single Dads like me! I feel like every single Dad has some unique story! Would love to connect with other Dad's.
One thing, BRO has a chat in their discord Dad Chat that I use to connect with other Dads!
