We always joke around about
what our mutant powers would be. Useful
things like being able to talk to Salmonella so I know how long to cook my
food. (get it? When my food stops
talking to me, it’s done because the Salmonella is dead!)
But now I have discovered that as a new
father I really do have powers! And they
are awesome. Here they are:
-Can go long periods without
bathing.
-High pain threshold on the
ends of my arm hair follicles
-Become adept at using one
hand for almost everything while holding a baby
-Decreased testosterone
levels. (For real! This actually
happens!) I guess it makes us less aggressive or something and therefore
more nurturing.
-Able to wake up instantly
at all hours of the night.
With this great power comes
great responsibility. Unfortunately, it
also has a weakness. That would be my
daughter who can melt my heart in an instant with a smile. As seen about 2/3 of the way through this
video of Von Bebe waking up in the morning.
Literally, I took this first thing yesterday morning. This is how she wakes almost every single
day. Enjoy.
