The First Frazzle

Welcome to my blog where I promise to write about the phenomenon of parenting. This blog is going to focus on the day to day activities that make a parent scratch their head fifty or sixty times by dinnertime. For example, when you leave your daughter alone for two seconds near a pair of scissors and she decides to cut her own hair (guilty). Or when your four-year-old son decides to go "full-monty" in the pew five minutes into Father Gallagher's sermon (also guilty). All the things that helped me become a "Frazzled Father."

I'm sure I'll spend some time on other things that cause a parent to frazzle as well. Like the time my wife and I got into a horrible fight about my dirty socks and where they belong (not on the bathroom floor guys). Or why as I approach the age of forty I still find boogers and gas to be a great source of entertainment. My wife is still amazed that I can remember things like Gary Carter's batting average in August of 1986 but after five years of living in the same house I still can't remember what the trash schedule is.

In closing, my goal is to have a new post up on this blog at least every week. I hope you guys will read it, enjoy it, and recommend it to your friends. I'd also like to thank my wife, Rosanna, and my kids for giving me the material to keep such a blog. Remember, it's all in fun - right Honey?

Sincerely,
The Frazzled Father
