“Have you ever seen the movie Taken? Because I have, and my father is no Liam Neeson. He doesn’t have any special skills, and he will definitely not come find me.”

I’ve decided there’s nothing sexier than a man snuggling his son close.

Dating was so much easier when I didn’t have a seven-year-old sabotaging me at every turn, and I’m not even dating. I’m just texting.

Good looks come and go, but being a dependable dad is something that is attractive forever.

I open up my Styrofoam container, and the smell of steak quesadillas drifts up to my nose. “What did you get?” I lean over as Tyler opens up his box. There's a half-eaten baked potato and a half-eaten steak. I gasp. “Somebody ate yours!” “What?” He looks down. “No, they didn't. It looks fine to me.” He moves the box so I can’t see it. “Tyler.” I grab the lid, flipping it back open. “Look at your potato. It totally has a bite taken out of it. We should call the restaurant and complain.”

im crying 😂😂😂😂

There’s never been anything more attractive than a woman loving on my son.

“You’re right. I don’t need you. I see that now. But Meg, I want you. You’re the person I want to be with. The person I want to turn to when I've just won the championship. When the entire team runs to the pitcher or to the kid who just hit the home run, I want to run to you. You make everything better. You make the losses bearable and the wins complete.”

“I don’t look at your mother like she’s my competition. I look at her like she’s my friend. She loves the same people I love, and therefore, I love her.”
