I now have a lifetime to work out how to be a good Dad but in the last three weeks (which have passed so quickly) I've learned a small number of things already.
1: Having a child is amazing.
2: Its hard work and afternoon naps are a welcome reality
3: Communication with Finn is a learning curve but mostly the cries seem to mean "Your not the mommy, bring me to a breast!" or "Be ready, I'm working on something and I WILL need my diaper changed"
4: Winding a baby can be a two directional process with VERY audible and on occasion physical results.
5: The natural human response to catch things is hard to overcome, even if the projectile is liquid or from well within a baby's body.
6: I'm thankful I'm not a squeamish person!
7: Having a child is AMAZING and we are loving it.
