Dad's Corner: Making Daddy Proud

There are times in every Dad's life when his son will make him proud.  Like each time we went to the ultrasound and the nurse showed us his wawawoo because it was so "noticeable".  Or when he hits his first home run, scores his first goal, or captures his first rook (whatever he's into).  Or when he dates his first super model, Victoria's Secret or Giorgio Armani (whatever he's into).  Today, however, was the first day anyone has made Conor laugh!  And that anyone was me.  It took several raspberries, but eventually he cracked, and it was such a good feeling to hear that sound.  I've been trying all kinds of jokes (have you heard the one about the interrupting cow?), but it seems he's more into the physical humor.  We think he's ticklish now too.  Unfortunately for him, I love to tease and harass, so now begins the endless tickling and raspberries to satisfy my own need to hear his laughter.
