I've got a 9 month old that has slept through the night maybe 3-4 times.

A week ago sunday, my very active 3 year old woke up screaming bloody murder, standing in the corner of her bed because "mosters" were going to get her.....I hop in bed, tell her its alright and she screams bloody murder because a monster is "getting me" while I'm talking to her. Its been a non-stop chasing mosters away, looking for monsters, "there are no monsters".....and then crying in the night from a kid who has never been afraid of the dark....because she's always thought her daddy was Chuck Norris.

Fatherhood is very, very rewarding....but very very challenging.

I think I'm ready right now. I'm going to be 29 next month, and I really didn't want to be an old dad.

I'll likely be leaning on a lot of you for advice come September.
