Say what you will about Microsoft, but when it comes to being an enlightened company, we've got it right.
New fathers get 1 month of paid paternity leave.
Yesterday, I picked up Paco at school at 1, took him to the park, got him a bagel, and went to the grocery store.
At 3:30, picked up Tonka, took her (I'd promised a 1 on 1 father/daughter outing) to see our Aunt Susan's new apartment (it's fabulous, a challenge since it was my grandparents apartment) and then to see her new male cousin.
Today, went to Paco's Purim Sing-a-long, where we convinced him to wear his tux as his costume. Very cute!
Totally made the time count and that made me feel good.
