This week I had the pleasure of taking the Twins on a 5 state 9-hour work + road trip!! Just us boys. To all the fathers out there I highly recommend doing this each summer. Take time off, make memories, and do just: man Stuff!! Seriously!! The entire week we ate nothing but BBQ and Ice Cream. We stopped on the side of roads to urinate in nature (sorry mom we did not have to accommodate you). Saw anything and everything sports related. And of course, accomplished work specifically celebrating 50 years of Title IX, while meeting a few co-workers on campus in the meantime. Through it all the boys taught me to see things through their eyes, uncomplicated any agenda I had in mind for the trip and revealed such flexibility for toddlers. I would do it repeatedly. Thank you for the second Dad and Twins only road trip along with the compelling 5 finds you demonstrated throughout the week…..
1. The key to being an impressive dad is aging without maturing!!
2. Take your child to work day is a wonderful opportunity to pull the fire alarm and blame the twins!!
3. "Being a dad at bedtime is like being a designated driver trying to get your friends to leave the bar."
4. The twins this week were either very shy in front of people, or already giving out their social security numbers!!
5. It is so cute how the twins think I’m going to let them in the jeep ever again after vacuuming it for two hours..
