Video Games and Weekdays With Niko

Posted on 02/14/202104/19/2025 by Mark

Since I don’t have much to write this week, I decided to combine two separate writings into one.

A few weeks ago, we purchased a Nintendo Switch along with a few games. By far, Niko’s favorite is Mario Bros; he calls it the jumpy game. Don’t laugh, but now when he watches YouTube Kids on his iPad, he is watching people playing Mario related video games.

During the weekdays and after I get done working at 4 pm, I get to be DAD and my wife gets to finish her work. I absolutely love this time with Niko and it goes so fast. We play, we eat, and we get cleaned. By 7:30 pm, he is ready for sleepy time and my time with Niko is finished until 4:30 am when I have to leave my dream state and wake him up for a pee.

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.
