Welcome to the Fatherlution!

A lot of you have been reading my blog for over 2 years and some have come on board in recent weeks, but all of you are here to read about a simple man, doing special things… well “special” for a man anyway ;). When I started this blog, it was for my thoughts, feelings and experiences. I thought this would be a cool thing to give my daughter when she was older. I still think this, but now it is much more than that. 

I am a part of the Fatherlution. I am one of many Dads, that have stayed at home to care to their kids. I am one of many Aussie Daddy Bloggers too. Please drop by our site and our Facebook Page and show some support.

You would’ve undoubtedly seen some of us in magazines, online articles and on radio recently. Keep an eye out for us on the TV too in coming weeks.image

Welcome to the Fatherlution.

Boys and their toys…

Recently started building a bike track in the back yard… I was a little more excited than the boys as I got the spray paint out and started marking out the track. Jaecob (8) ventured out the back, more interested initially in the spray can, than what I was actually doing with it. Finally after a few minutes of “Can I have a go Dad?”, he asked “Dad, whatchya doin’?”.

BANG! an almighty explosion from next door made both he and I jump. I looked over the fence to 5 teenagers with what would be best described as a pipe gun.

“What was that dad?” Jaec asked

“Just some kids being silly” I responded.

“Why are they doing that?”

“Probably because they don’t have girlfriends.” I said with a wink. “Jaec, you’re not going to be like that when you are a teenager are you mate?”

“Nah Dad, I’ll be too busy riding my bike.”

“And what about having a girlfriend?”

“Yeah, I’ll ride my bike and have a girlfriend.” He said knowingly

Atta boy.
