Being Dad

[yubbywelch]

Yesterday I took my 3 youngest daughters to see my 10 year old's favourite band/group, Justice Crew.

We waited for 2hrs watching other entertainment when I had not one of my proudest daddy moments.

My second daughter came to me and said Daddy I can't see. I said to her are the people standing in front of you blocking your view? She told me No, I explained to her she's probably just tired, so I told her close her eyes and rest.

I then realised she was clammy, (light sweat) and she was a little pale.

When I decided to get all my girls and go and get a drink and something to drink, It then clicked and I realised that my daughter was badly dehydrated.

When my eldest came from her position in the front row, she informed me that my second daughter was clumsy, and had almost fallen over a couple of times... father of the year stuff.

During this great daddy moment My daughters favourite group walked past them as I was purchasing drinks, so she was chuffed she got within a couple of metres of them.

During the pre-entertainment there were quality riders for a 1/2 pipe for bmx, scooter and skateboarders.

Then some dancers, beat boxer and break dancers came and performed at different intervals, they then choose a couple of random people from the audience to have a dance off.

Guess what father was chosen?

Alright stop laughing!

Ahh yubbs me ol'chum there's nothing like a bit of parent guilt to shake things up. Don't be too hard on yourself as good parenting doesn't mean being perfect.

I'd laugh more if I could see a video.

Oh Winnie wanted me to pass on a message as she cant log on but did read this post. I can't find what it was she wanted me to tell you but it was typically Winnie nice.

We're only human, I don't mind sharing when I stuff up.

Thanks Oz.

Yes, would just have said pretty much the same as Oz. You're a good dad Yubbs - just a human one, like you say. When I was little, my mum mistook chicken pox for flea bites where I'd been hugging a donkey. Got told off for being grumpy (I was burning up) and got packed off to school the next day. 2 days later, she realised it was chicken pox when my brothers developed the same itchy spots.

I'm with Oz. Any incriminating videos?

Now lets see if this posts ...

It's not really sharing in the Tavern these days.


It's become our private playground.
