Dad Points

I have the most supportive and amazing husband ever! He is also an amazing father.  Greg and I have been married for four years. In that time, he has worked hard to support me and now Meredith as well. This means that while I stay home with Meredith full time, Greg is away during the day.  He loves Meredith so much and it kills him to be away at work. Although he enjoys being the provider, he does feel like he misses out many special moments. As many parents know, kids seem to prefer the parent they spend the day with. So, when Greg gets home, Meredith is still very attached to me. Greg and I believe that although this is normal, it’s also important for Meredith to form a close bond with him and have some one on one time. This is why we institute daddy/daughter dates. Once a month (or so), Greg uses a Saturday morning and takes Meredith on a special adventure. He usually takes her to museums and has just as much fun as she does. Today, Greg toke Meredith to the Museum of Science and Technology.  The museum has real trains to check out, a crazy kitchen, a kids play zone and many buttons to push. It’s no wonder Meredith had so much fun!
Points for the day:
One bazillion points: to Greg for all he does for me and Meredith
100 points: for staying home and missing out on all the fun and giving them a special time together
