Fatherhood Friday is both a day and a growing community of dads and moms sharing stories, ideas, photos and movies with one topic in mind - fatherhood. In a world that seems happy to deliver a message that dads are incapable buffoons, Dad Blogs is committed to changing that perception. The reality is, as we see it, parents today are more aware of parenting and the impact it has on their children and dads everywhere are becoming more active caregivers. If you don't believe me--check out the posts in our archives.

It's Fatherhood Friday once again! Next week we hope to unveil a theme and a resonant purpose behind Fatherhood Friday. We haven't tried this before, but we think the addition of a theme will only make the posts more fun to read than ever before. Look for an update early next week through a post here at Dad Blogs or through a newsletter in your email. I can't get into too much detail, but needless to say we are excited.
I don't know how everyone else's summer is going, but I know mine has been hectic. I can't believe I am saying this, but I am actually anxious for school to start.
Don't forget about Daddy Yak IV. There is a reminder for members on the home page side bar, but the topic is babies and toddlers in public places and the deadline is August 14th.

Go theme! Idea: Make a poll with a list of themes for each week to let everyone vote on the next weeks theme.. Perhaps for Yak attack too.
