I know a lot of moms use online forums to complain about the fathers of their children and their shortcomings, especially on Father’s Day. This is not one of those posts. While I, at times, get annoyed by my significant other, surely he feels the same about me and my neuroses. This post is about my favorite qualities in my husband as a father to our kids. I think these traits are universally good traits for Dads to possess. He always makes them smile. Whether it’s funny voices, actively playing or just being silly, it warms my heart when I
Last month, I put together a Mother’s Day Gift Guide. Since this year will mark my first official Father’s Day, I’ve put together a list of gifts any dad will love that fit any budget. 1.

Did you know that the Emperor Penguin is one of the most dedicated fathers in nature? This print is a pretty perfect (and easy) Father’s Day gift. $5.19 (plus printing) 2. Genius Series Pocket Notebook (3 Pack) The shortest pencil is better than the longest memory.
Father’s Day is a pretty big deal to my family. Since my house is filled with five women and three female dogs, my dad is significantly outnumbered. My sisters and I are — admittedly — the epitome of a “daddy’s girl,” so I suspect that could be why Father’s Day is really important to us. Of course, we try every day to show our dad how grateful we are for all that he’s done, but sometimes, with the general chaos of life, the message doesn’t get through as clearly or as frequently as we hope. Dads hold a very dear place in

After attending the launch event at Fluff n’ Stuff, James went back several times each week to improve his technique and time. He was a man with a mission. But what really touched us about James’ story was what happened before The CAN Challenge ever began. James is an army veteran, having served in Iraq, where his unit was hit by a roadside bomb. James is now medically retired from the U.S. Army due to injuries received during
Editor’s note: This blog post was written and intended to be published in time for Father’s Day. However, the newest addition to Jessica’s family had other plans in mind, which required some last minute edits. We’re happy to announce the arrival of another little one into the Cotton Babies family and hope you enjoy this piece, despite it’s slightly late arrival. The first baby my husband ever held was my nephew, for probably 3 minutes before handing him back to me. Fast forward 19 months, and the next baby he held was our daughter. I remember him asking me when
