The Dad Speaks 3-Year Anniversary

Posted on 10/31/201804/19/2025 by Mark

Wow! I can’t believe it’s been 3 years since that 1st post of hey, we are having a baby!  I really enjoy writing and as I say quite often, typing words and making sense of them comes extremely easy for me.

This year, Niko wasn’t dressed as a skeleton; he was dressed as Shrek or so he though so.  Grey shirt, green pants, and light-up sneakers; no vest or Ogre ears.  Nina was dressed as Princess Fiona and when I saw her, she was the most beautiful Princess Fiona in the entire universe; she even dyed her hair red!  And, me, well, I wore a Waldo shirt to work; Niko picked it out for me and even if it was missing the signature hat, I was happy to wear it for my son.  

I just wish I had more time to write.  I know, I can stop taking naps on the weekends and dedicate that time to writing; writing that sounds very nice and it would be quiet, but it’s not going to happen!  So, I guess you will get shorter posts and I am OK with that. 

Oh, starting this Friday and Monday, I will be taking a lot of time off from my full-time job.  I actually don’t work a full week until next year!  Thank you Chase for my vacation, personal days, and bank holidays.  

It is very much needed for me as its been a long year; I don’t have any work stress, but I do have stress at home since our house has been on the market for a few months.  We are ready to move!  Somebody please BUY OUR HOUSE!

Our last vacation was a cruise in November of 2015.  Even though we don’t have anything like that planned this year, we will do lots of fun things outside; because it will be cooler, and of course, I will write about it and take some pictures!  I haven’t used my digital camera since last December and last week, Nina and I purchased the newest iPhone and I heard it’s good for pictures and videos.

Hi, I am Mark. I started writing in 2011 about high school football, daddy blogging since 2015, and reviewing books since 2023. My writing style is unique, my sense of humor is a little crazy, and I’m not embarrassed to share any of it. You can email me at thedadspeaks@icloud.com.
