... about being a good dad

Author Gabriel Garcia Marquez said, "A man knows when he is growing old because he begins to look like his father." While we may buck against that when we are younger, after all, who wants to be like that guy? We tend to soften, get smarter, and realize that’s our path. We’re going to look like him physically and sometimes, whether we like to admit it or not, we are going to act like him.

"If the new American father feels bewildered and even defeated, let him take comfort from the fact that whatever he does in any fathering situation has a fifty percent chance of being right." -- Bill Cosby

Guys, what are some good memories of our fathers? What are some traits we want to have that he had that will help us be better dads?
