I have a 12-year old daughter and just seeing her develop into a young lady makes me all the more conscious about the kind of role model of men that I portray to her. You are an amazingly good writer and I am sure an even better dad. I have much to learn from you. So glad I found your blog. <abbr><em>Marks last blog post..<a href="http://www.dadislife.com/2008/10/01/becoming-a-first-time-dad-start-preparing-now/">Becoming a first-time dad | Start Preparing *Now*</a></abbr></em> This is a post I can identify with.

I'm sure my dad loved to see me play Barbies and dress up like princesses when I was little, but what I really remember is that he insisted I learn how and do anything my brothers could (and possibly more). He taught me to change the oil, spark plugs, and even the alternator on the car designated for teenager use. He even paid me market price for oil changes on his car. I knew what every one of the tools in his tool box did, and when a cheap metal pipe would be more useful than any of them. I watched him put in sprinkler systems and install light fixtures. He made sure that I had the confidence to do things myself and the wisdom to get help when needed. The magic words were "I need a helper; can you come here?" and I use them with my own kids to the same glorious results. I have five brothers, and no sisters.
