First of all, your babies are super cute! I completely agree with you on this. Motherhood and Fatherhood go hand in hand. There are certain things for which a child needs their mother and for sure she is indispensable but then there are other things where no one can fill in for a father. I'm a new mother and I cannot agree with you more on it now that I'm witnessing this with myself.
And even if I think about my childhood, there are things I can't go to my mom for and where I definitely want my father to step in (especially sighing the report cards because mom would kill me, LOL). But jokes apart, I'm sure you must be a great father; everyone is in their own way. Good post!
Congrats!
As I have reflected on the differences between motherhood and fatherhood, I have come up with an overly simplistic (but nonetheless useful, to me anyway) comparison:
This is not to say that a mother cannot help a child develop and grow spiritually, nor that a father cannot help a child with the physical necessities of life. It's just a difference that I've noticed, with respect to how we are wired and our tendencies.
A child needs both. And, fortunately for those single parents out there, surrogate mothers and fathers are able to step in and fill the gaps left behind by misfortune, divorce, or tragedy.
