Over Christmas my oldest who is six months pregnant brought with her a home heart monitor device that lets you hear the baby's heart. I heard my granddaughters heart for the first time the other day and yeah, happy tears!

My 2.5 year old daughter recently decided to start calling us “mom” and “dad” instead of “mama” and “dada.” Hearing it made me realize she isn’t a baby anymore, which resulted in a long hug and a mix of happy and sad tears.

That murdered me. I'm not dad! Thankfully it was a phase. At 7, still introduces me to strangers as "Daddy"
