I loved this video about Fathers. I sometimes (a lot of times) complain about how hard it is to be a mom but dads do NOT have it easy. The part about dads trying to balance work and family made me tear up a little. I know there is a lot of pressure on a good dad like Dave to do it all. My kids are so lucky to have him--I'm not exaggerating when I say he's the most involved dad I've ever met. My kids cannot wait for him to get home because they know he'll play with them and lay by them at bedtime (I usually say no these days) and just be the best dad ever. I sure love that man--and so do our kids.
