This is a must read for parents, young and old. The author has a great flair for humor mixed with serious thoughts on parenting, fatherhood in particular. The stories are drawn from his experiences raising his own children, but the reader soon realizes the universal application to all parents. Take this book to the beach, on an airplane, etc. You will be glad you did. Bruce & Marge Rice

Gloriously funny and poignant at the same time. Made me want to hug my 6-year-old - they are only young once and Tim Herrera brings you into that world of cherishing special "ordinary" moments. Bravo, Tim! This should be on every gift list for Dads.... Write another one ----

Thanks Tim, for an insightful look into what parenthood is. The title "I'm Their Dad! Not Their Babysitter!" sums it up well. More dad's out there should read this book and see how important and enjoyable BEING THERE FOR THEIR CHILDREN can be. My son is only 19 months old...but I can tell that MY life is just beginning. Oh, the adventures we'll have! Thanks again Tim for the heads up!

While this book transcends how fathers view their children, and will be enjoyed by mothers alike, Tim touches a place in the heart that only a dad would understand. In every quick reading chapter I either cried (babys being born) or laughed (household disorganization) because I've been there and could relate 100%. Tim brings a fresh, humerous and touching perspective and reassured me that I'm not alone out here.
