The Bachelor (sort of)

I am a bachelor for the next 48 hours.  Well, sort of.  Bethany is in OKC for a book table through late Saturday night.  So, it is just me and the kids.  So, what will we do?

Will we just eat junk food, stay up late, leave trash all around the house?  Nope.  Because I'm a responsible dad.  It upsets me to watch TV shows and movies where dads are seen as goofballs who are incapable of taking care of the kids.  And especially those that portray dads as incompetent and uninvolved in their children's lives.  Shame on Hollywood for perpetuating this image.

Dads, let's prove Hollywood and culture wrong and be the dads we are called to be.  Dads who care for our children well, have fun with our kids, attend their activities, show them they are loved no matter what, and most importantly teach them what it means to follow Christ.

Now, where did Molly go?
