Paul loves being the father of two daughters .... seriously he does. Brooke was instantly Daddy's Little Girl. She loves to be outside with him, grocery shopping, or on one of their famous Saturday morning dump runs. When Kristen was born and Dr. Amdur declared "It's a girl" Paul literally fist pumped and said "Yesssssssssssss" outloud.
We have a million pictures that look like this ....
I thought maybe I had a chance with Kristen. For a good long time she was mine .. a total Momma's girl but I am starting to doubt my standing in the pecking order around here. She is going through this thing where we all have to "be" someone. If we are watching Tangled, Kristen is Maximus, Paul is Flynn Rider, Brooke is Rapunzel and I, I am Mother Gothiel .... hmmm gorgeous horsey, handsome prince, beautiful princess and Mother Gothiel. OK, even if you have not seen Tangled 950 times like we have, do we think anyone named "Gothiel" - is sweet and pretty .... probably not. Hmmm, maybe she is trying to tell me something? When we watch Barbie and the 12 Dancing Princesses - Kristen (our animal lover) is Twila the Cat, Brooke is Genevive (the Princess played by Barbie) and Daddy is Derek the handsome man who routinely delivers the princesses new shoes. I know you are all wondering what beautiful princess I am, I mean there are ELEVEN others to chose from. No, I am Rowena, Ro. Wen. A. I am starting to sense a pattern.
Paul loves being the father of two daughters, well he does right now, check back with me when they are 12 and 14. Maybe he will have been relegated to Gargamel or Lord Farquar. A girl can dream - right?

I'd love to say it would be different if you had boys but I'm afraid that my boys prefer Steve time to me everyday as well.
We're good if they are sick, scared, or need a good hug. Other than that, we are kill-joys to the party.
Goes with the territory I'm afraid. I have been saying for a while now that next time, I'm coming back as a boy!
