I was at a local park today, that I often frequent with my 3 y/o daughter. It was about 10:45am, when I looked around to discover 7 Dads and only 2 Moms. I felt like I was in Superman's bizzaroworld. I found my self shaken, and didn't know who to talk to first. I saw 2 Dads already in deep conversation. Not them... I need someone unattached. How about the Dad lathering up is daughter with sunscreen. No he is too preoccupied. What about the one not paying attention to his son, because he is reading the paper... Ahh, Nope!

Another Dad on the phone at the time and another talking to one of the Moms. Oh no, my last option is leaving... Just then my daughter decides to go on the swings. OK, so I follow to push her. She of course chooses the swing next to the "other" Mom. We make idle chit chat about the kids, and I reluctantly accept that she is keeping me from all these SAHD possibilities. Well at least she was easy on the eyes, but that is little comfort. Oh no!! Hear comes my wife to meet us for lunch. No, not now! Next time I am here I could be the only SAHD. It could be years before I see the odds again. Well my daughter is hungry and ready to join Mom's ranks, so off we go.

I do have to admit that some of the Dads may not be SAHDs, but one did have a Superman tattoo on his arm, so he must be... Right?
