Excitement of a little childI read somewhere that children find their fathers more exciting than their mothers. They look to the Father figure to throw them in the air causing laughter and smiles. Mommy is seen as the authoritarian who is also available for comfort when sad or hurt.
While Daddy is gone during the day, I play with my kids. Sure I work on cleaning the house, washing the dishes, and providing clean laundry, but I also jump on the trampoline, play hide and seek, and build castles out of blocks.
When Daddy comes home, my kids light up. They run towards him yelling "DADDY!" which tells me that they are excited to see him and play time can begin again. I refuse to be seen only as someone who loves and cares but does not play. I am happy to jump in with Daddy and roll around on the floor surrounded by giggles. I am happy to dance and clap with them while Daddy provides the music on the Piano. I may not be able to throw them up in the air like he can, but I build better castles!
My house may not be spotless and perfectly organized, but my kids are happy and they know that their Mommy knows how to play.
