Happy Father’s Day! Happy Birthday Papá Heroes!

I can believe it has been a year already when Rick, Lucy, and I launched this project.

It has been an interesting year and it also marks my second Father’s Day as a Dad. My daughter is about to turn 18 months and reality is that every day I enjoy the joys of parenting even more.

First of all I want to thank Lucy who has taken most of the weight of updating and maintaining the site. Rick does an awesome job to create a piece of art while sharing his experiences as a Dad with the Daddyknows comic strip.

Over the past 12 months we have shared many things we felt might be of interest to you and the rest of our readers. From sharing my advice on how carrots can help with teething to helping you understand a bit more how to recently sharing on how I feel as a new dad every time I reach a Milestone.

Instead making this one of my longer posts I really want to make it very clear that I want to thank you for supporting this effort.

The Definition of a Father

Last year I wrote bout My Papaheroes as my first post. I still feel the same way about my two uncles and dad so I rather share with you guys what being a father means to these three brave gentlemen that shared their thoughts via audio or on text.

SUMNER MUSOLF’S QUOTE

My father molded me into the man that I’ve become. As such, I am continuously conscious of the essential role I play in the future of my children, even long after I leave them.

There are few greater gifts in my life than the unconditional love my father gave me, and in turn, the evolutionary, unconquerable love I provide to them._~Sumner Musolf

JULIO R. VARELA’S QUOTE

“Being a dad is being an equipment manager. You work behind the scenes to make sure everything runs smoothly for your kids. Doing the dirty work and not looking for glory. The glory belongs to your kids.” ~Julio Ricardo Varela

For all of you that have collaborated either by posting one of your badges on your site, mentioning us on your blogs, writing a post for us, mentioning us, referring us or any other action we are very happy to have you as part of the Papa Heroes Alliance!

As a kid watching el Chapulin Colorado I was always trying to answer the call of “Quien Podra Defenderme” (who could help me now). Reading a mix of X-men comics where I admired Wolverine but wanted the world to be more like Archie and Jughead’s I have always been in constant search of helping those in need.
