Published 7 hours ago

Dads can be the foundational pillars in our lives that we lean on when times get tough.

Scroll below to check out a gallery of such happy moments when dad’s brought their A-game when parenting and showed other;s how it should be done as well.

Nobody ever thinks that they’ll make this mistake – with my ADHD I’m gonna be proactive about it.
We’re all fried. The day we brought him home I left the hose running for four hours. Sometimes I’m so concerned with his needs that I forget to eat.
Putting this on my arm when we’re driving and storing it on the car seat when we’re not offers me peace of mind.

#20 Witnessed A Beautiful Moment Watching Bluey At The Cinema

Image source: LancLad1987

Here in the UK (not sure about the rest of the world) there has been a screening of a compilation of Bluey episodes in Reel cinemas across the country. I took my 4yo daughter and witnessed the most amazing moment I may ever see.
The intro music began, usual calling out ‘mum’, ‘dad’, ‘bingo’, then as it would usually sing ‘Bluey!’…. it didn’t. It was extended and a bunch of other characters joined in with the dancing. This isnt the moment though. Every single kid was pointing out loudly ‘oh, it’s different’ and collectively, 100 parents told their child to shush because they needed to hear it myself included. It’s like we said it in unison, realised we are all as sad as each other and all laughed. It was very special.

#22 Why Losing Weight As A Parent Is Important

Image source: JordanMartinez95

1 year ago today, after seeing the photo on the left, I realised the small but very powerful reason why I needed to get back on track ❤️

It took me another three months to fully pull myself out of the mess I’d got myself into, but better late than never! 😂

We all say our children are our everything (and I’m no different!), but let’s be honest – life gets in the way.

We’re busy juggling work, socialising, stressing over bills, and just trying to keep everything together.

But to our kids? We are their entire world. Every smile, every tear, every moment – we’re at the centre of it all.

If someone depends on you, you have a responsibility to them.

A responsibility to live long enough to watch them become who they’re meant to be.

To be there to kick a ball around, or to help them practice their gymnastics moves.

To show them, by example, how to live a full and healthy life so that one day, they can do the same.

Do them a favour – live long enough to see them have their own children one day.

That’s the greatest gift you can give them.

Shanilou Perera

Shanilou has always loved reading and learning about the world we live in. While she enjoys fictional books and stories just as much, since childhood she was especially fascinated by encyclopaedias and strangely enough, self-help books. As a kid, she spent most of her time consuming as much knowledge as she could get her hands on and could always be found at the library. Now, she still enjoys finding out about all the amazing things that surround us in our day-to-day lives and is blessed to be able to write about them to share with the whole world as a profession.

Got wisdom to pour?
