Fatherhood Buzzzzz

So every year the National Fatherhood Initiative honors some special dads at its annual gala. This year the event centered on Chief Quartermaster John Lehnen for his outstanding work as a military dad. The evening was a beautiful tribute to him and his family, as they continue to manage the balancing act of "military" with "family." The lovely four Lehnen kids (a set of triplets in there!) and wife Jennifer were also on hand.

And a few days after all of that, the Lehnens got an even bigger honor as the President invited them to the White House for a series of events on fatherhood. There is a short but incredible video of Chief Lehnen's reponses to that day on the White House blog. Check it out...good stuff!

I've been doing this...anyway...

So I realized that I've been blogging...just not publicly. As part of my job, I have the fabulous responsibility of reading the Washington Post and USA Today every day. I know, I can hardly believe that someone pays me to do that either. But I love it, so no complaints! In any case, there is always something interesting going on and I'm always emailing articles to friends and family. But now it's going to be back here. Stat.

That being said, some things never change. Like how much I love LOLFed, Cakewrecks, or the Pregnant Pause.

legit, yo.

am now blogging for work here on the father factor blog...

[i get paid for this? someone pinch me!]
