Family
I am married with two little girls and yes another girl on the way. Even our cat is a girl. Four women and me, there is no way I am at a disadvantage. Right?
My wife and I have been married for over 10 great years. It’s hard to make her laugh but when I do, she usually laughs so hard that she starts tearing. Our older daughter is just like me in her behavior while the younger is more like my wife. No matter how hard I resist I can’t say no to them. They get that charm from their mother. As one can imagine, all they have to do is bat their eyelashes and they are basically getting what they want.
Fun Facts
I learned to speak fluent Swedish in 8 months. It was very difficult but now my kids can’t say anything about me without me understanding them. The struggles were well worth it.
As a young child I really liked to draw pictures. I would sometimes draw for hours on the weekend. My mother recently told me that she kept a lot is my artwork from those days to show to my kids sometime.
