I hope this finds its way into the hands of people who will find it useful. I can imagine that it would be extremely useful and hopefully avert a lot of pain. Also I didn't know about the organization that the author is a part of:

This information came to me through the homebirth-family community in my area. :D

Obama's Father's Day speech

"Any fool can have a child! That doesn't make you a father!" LOL

I love the bit from 2:30-4:30 or so. (Well, actually, I liked pretty much the whole thing but that was a good part.)

EDIT: I just finished watching it and thought I might warn you that he starts preaching at about 22:20. He's in a church.

I did end up getting something for Evan today. Blue and I went and got him an adorable tiny little MP3 player to clip on to his clothes when he goes running. Supporting his ambitions, and so on. Blue was really sweet in the store; he held my hand the whole time and was interested in everything but not wild at all. We wrapped up the present when we got home and brought it downstairs to give to Evan. I said "Happy Father's day!" and Blue said "It's for running!" :D
