I bloody love being a dad

I honestly think that I am now a better person than I was five months ago. This is because I have a baby boy in my life and not only has he made me a happier person but he has also made me realise that there is more to life than just being a young adult, you know going out all the time drinking and wasting money on shit.

The fact that every morning I wake up to a smile has made me happier person and it sets me up for the day! I know understand why so many people say they grow up ever so quickly. I mean it seems like a few weeks ago when he was born and now it he rolling around the place, laughing and having fun. 

I love spending time with the little man. Time in the past I would have wasted watching crap tv or playing on the Xbox. He laughs everyday, his laugh is infectious and it makes my heart melt!

I love being the first one of our friend to have a baby. Everyone cares and asks for him everyday, everyone loves him he is a fantastic little man and he is always happy, warm and friendly.

I spend time with him everyday showing him new things, playing with new toys, singing to him, reading and generally emmercing him in our lives. He gets to hear the stuff we had when we grew up.

Yes being a dad is hard but it is the best job in the world! I wouldn't swap any moment for all the money in the world.
