How to be a single dad

by @Penmann

Take the silliest drawings and magnets, Buy a big fridge, put them on. They will remind you of who the fuck you are When he's out playing. When he's gone. You should play too. Grab a toy soldier. Give him a name. Who cares, throw fits. If you want to food hack your kids, Mash up two different kinds of cereals. This will make your breakfast unique. Just think. Use your head. That's what a parent is about. It's about not being dead. Grab little color chalks. Draw his life. Let him correct it too. He's better at it than you. It's about not acting plain, You carry his story, But let him explain. Don't just be a simple dad. Be the best. Be a mom. He needs one.
