FIN.

April 6, 2007

Well, it’s time to say goodbye. Thanks everyone for reading, I’ve really appreciated all the constructive and helpful comments I’ve had here while learning what it is to be a modern father. And, it’s being a modern father that has led me to make this decision. The ever expanding role of my job and my free time being taken up by my family (as it should be), I have decided to shutter the blog. You know Hayes has gone from a screaming baby to a talkative two-year-old and I’ve found it’s just more fun to play with Hayes and Jen in my free time than it has to write about them.

So, there you have it.

Thanks, everyone. I’ll miss you.

    I’m sorry to see you go, but I completely understand the motivation behind it. Seems like the modern dad has less and less time and an increasing number of obligations. I’ve been a long-time reader and I wanted you to know that you’ll be missed. My family and I wish all the best to you and your family now and in the future!

    That’s too bad… but I fear that my future holds the same fate. Good luck / have fun.
