Novel & Cerita Best Books For New Dads

"Dad, never mind." "Please forgive us. It may be too late. However, you should know one thing. I and your mommy love you very much." Daddy let out a long sigh. "Back then... we were too busy working. All we could think about was how to keep our children from being deprived. Little did we know that all you needed was love and attention." His voice began to sound hoarse. "It's all in the past, Dad. Come on," complained Keenan, who also felt emotional about the development of their current relationship.

That did not take much convincing. I spent the rest of the morning reading reviews for parenting books, and wound up ordering a small library’s worth of titles. Alexander had left me with his credit card, telling me to get whatever I needed. So I ordered a bookshelf as well, somewhere to keep all the other stuff I was buying. It wasn’t like I was going to read everything before the baby arrived. But I could get through a fair few books in a couple weeks. And I’d start at the beginning, learning first about newborn care, and then move on to the early childhood education titles later.

"Tee, why didn't you wait for me before you left? Have you met your godson yet? When are you and Hugo going on your honeymoon? "Hugo's so mean! He just had to drag you off to get married while I was giving birth. Now, you can't even stay and keep me company. "But you don't have to worry about me. The baby daddy is here to take care of me." Then, she sent me a photo. In it, a man with long, slender fingers was holding a baby bottle, and he was wearing a wedding band identical to mine on his ring finger. My entire body trembled so violently that I could barely even hold onto my phone. Hugo and Freda couldn't even be bothered to hide it anymore; he hadn't even taken off the ring.

“I want to be there for you, and for our baby. Whatever you need. If you depend on me, even for little things at first, I can show you I mean it.” “I don’t know.” “Here! Look.” He reached into his knapsack at the foot of the bench and pulled out two books. He held them up for me and I skimmed the titles. They were books on parenting. “I want to be a good father,” he said. I slightly thawed, impressed by the bent spines and marked pages of the books. He’d been studying. He lowered his books down onto the empty space on the opposite side of him. “I’ve made mistakes, Cynthia. I was an idiot kid. So many women all around me kept throwing themselves at me and I was too weak to reject them.”

Neither Lyra nor Arsen cared. The only thing that mattered was the tiny life growing stronger every day. As the months passed, Arsen became increasingly fascinated by fatherhood. He purchased books. Then more books. Then entire libraries of books. Mrs. Vale found him one afternoon reading a guide titled The First 365 Days of Fatherhood. "Carl." Arsen looked up. "Yes?" "The baby isn't even born yet." "I know." Mrs. Vale stared. Arsen continued reading. She laughed so hard she had tears in her eyes.

“You have to know this stuff.” Devon took to the research with an intensity that bordered on obsession. Parenting books lined the shelves in their bedroom, dog-eared and annotated in his careful handwriting. He read late into the night, sipping bitter coffee, imagining the baby he had not yet met. How to cradle her, how to soothe her cries, how to anticipate needs he couldn’t yet comprehend. Each page, each note, was a way to prepare for the moment when he would finally hold her, when he would finally understand what it truly meant to be needed.

POV: Lena Moretti I found the books on his nightstand on a Monday. I wasn't snooping. I was looking for a phone charger I'd left in the living room and wandered past his open door and there they were. Three of them. Stacked in order of thickness. "What to Expect When You're Expecting." "The Birth Partner." And a thinner one called "New Father's Survival Guide" with a sticky note marking a chapter about the first six weeks.

"Since when did the man who's so great at protecting his perfect little family become too fragile to handle the truth?" Ian's expression hardened, and an awkward look flashed across his face. However, when he spoke up, he still chose to shift the blame on Mom. "Your mother's the one who couldn't let go back then. She refused to accept reality and insisted on blowing everything out of proportion. Had she come to terms with reality, we could have all lived in peace." Holding his gaze, I felt anger flare up in my chest. "We could've all lived in peace? Do you have any idea how I lost my hearing?"

It was dirty and messy and wonderful. “I wonder if I’d be able to do that,” Adam said, staring up at the ceiling. “Be a dad. It’s gotta be hard. I bet a lot of dads learn from their own fathers. They probably find out what to do and what not to do from watching their own parents. But I don’t have that. Not to mention… everything I’ve been through. If I ever had a son, I might mess him up really badly, you know? I might not be able to teach him how to be a man.”
