Loved this post and grabbed your feed.
Just fathered a second child.

What about being a super teacher, encyclopedia, tape recorder etc?

… and this is only the beginning when you’re a single dad!

Nice list. Many people have the stereotype of Mom having all these powers, but with telecommuting and home-based ventures, it may be the dawn of the Superdad age.

Great stuff, Derek!

I have all of those super powers.

In my dreams, at night.

Unfortunately, in real life I don’t have any of them…. and I have 3 kids.

I feel sorry for my kids

Electo-sensory perseption:
As kids we always forgot to turn off the lights when we left a room. He always seemed to know and would shout at us from another room in the house, “Turn off the light when you’re done!” To this day we don’t know how he ever knew all the time. One thing is for sure… it’s hereditary.

Hortense –

Thank you for reading, and for your compliment. Fatherhood is both tough and rewarding, and it does take guts to stick around and be present with your kids.

Cheers

Your blog is awesome and sounds like it’s all from the heart.
3 cheers to you my friend . Being a functional dad is a very honorary position to hold in this universe where most men
sow seeds and take off for fear of taking some responsibility and standing up as a man of worth and pride.

Good stuff!

Derek, been meaning to make it over here for a while & this is just the right post. I so relate. I don’t know if I have all 7, but they’ve certainly wanted to be used at times.

#8 would be a rockin’ sense of humor, which you seem to have. Peace, bro…
