One of the best parts of being a dad…

…is just not caring what others think. My family went on a bike ride and my kid’s backpack broke. I came up with the idea to take my belt off and tie down the remnants of said backpack on my bike (good idea).

My loving wife says “you’re gonna look ridiculous with that on the back of your bike”

She had a point, it did look ridiculous. BUT, it worked and held and brought everything back safely. I did not care how ridiculous it looked. I’m looking forward to leaning into this aspect of Dad-ness. Oh this shirt looks ridiculous? Well now I’m going to pick you up from school in it. My taste in music is bad? Guess who the DJ is at your high school dance…
