I’ve been an active, hands on kind of dad since my kids were conceived. Two sets of twins, just over 1 year apart, tough pregnancies. Wife struggled before that but after the second birth, she changed. Asexual, depression, physical issues. That lead me to handling pretty much everything, which brought me in contact with a lot of the local moms. And this, dear friends, is the true story of an incredible day I spent with one of those moms, who I will call Kim.
Kim texted me at around 8 AM and asked if I wanted to meet around lunchtime at the park about midway between our houses (roughly 20 minutes away). Of course I agreed, showered up, got the kids ready, packed some snacks and lunches for my 4 and enough for her 2 (I included some fresh strawberries and Kiwi because I know Kim loves them).
