This was charming, heart warming, and moving.
This father, who writes with
such love, sounds like a wonderful man, and I'm so glad he shared his
experiences as a parent. As a stay-at-home mom, I definitely related to many of
his struggles with chores, but was most interested in his own story of how he
came to shake off a difficult childhood of his own, to embrace fatherhood
fearlessly.
This is very much a first book, very personal, and perhaps not
the most literary book out there, but Scott's sincerity and essential goodness
made this a treat to read.
Their family's battle with diabetes was
eye-opening, and frightening, and I'm sure his blog is a great source of
information and consolation for other parents dealing with that issue.
I did
find him to be a little grating at times, addressing "you ladies", but given his
sociocultural background, it was a wonderful effort, and I sincerely enjoyed
reading it.
