Short, but sweet.
I’d like to think I have a firm grasp on the majority of these tips, but some great reminders never hurt.

- Talk to them.
- Reading is always cool.
- Be grateful. And show it.
- Play.
- Treat everyone with respect and kindness.
- Smile.
- Pursue your bliss.
- Never too many “I love you’s”
Found your blog over the weekend, and am really enjoying your posts. I can tell you have a lot of fun as a dad. I have two myself and totally agree with your 12 tips. My dad never really showed affection, so I made the conscious decision to do the opposite with my own kids. I think it’s not only good for the kids, but for us dads too!!!
Thanks for tuning in Chris. Affection is most definitely a two-way street!
