Father's days sound great. Can't wait! The one thing I'd like to discuss is how other working Dads work to develop a close bond with their children when Mom is the one they see all day. My two year old and I have a great relationship but sometimes I need to work twice as hard for his affection, I wonder if other Dads face this issue.

Thank you for doing this. I'm a brand new dad, she's 7 weeks old. I will also be a stay at home dad when my wife goes back to work in a couple of weeks. Any tips on how to make it work would be great.
Success stories are greatly appreciated.

Hi Brian,
You're in for a real treat. Although I'm not a stay-at-home dad, I took a couple of months off work when my daughter was about 6 months old (about 6 years ago) after my wife went back to work. It was one of the most fulfilling experiences of my life. I remember spending a lot of time at the Baltimore Zoo when the weather was nice (it was fall). It's less crowded during the week and it's a great place to take a leisurely walk with a stroller.

Thanks for the encouragement jr. Living next to Patterson Park, I plan to do a lot of strolling.
