I came up with this idea a few months ago. I'd planned to finish and post it, but when I got to researching "dad poetry" they all seemed to be Father's Day ones, so I put it on the back burner until then. It's been killing me holding onto it for so long because the final panel really cracks me up!
Because of the delay, the old style pencils had to be reworked. The mom's face in the 3rd panel went through quite a few alterations as well, trying to get the perfect expression.
I found some sappy free poems online, but didn't want to risk infringing on anyone's copyright, so I asked my husband to write me one as he's better with wordy stuff.
People have asked about them referring to the baby as "that baby" -that's actually what we often call our youngest! He's a toddler now, but he's still "that baby" to us. The 4yo we call "long baby", which he fiercely protests to haha!
