Hey Dad,

Just to the left of my computer sits an indispensable tool from my fathering toolbox. Not long ago it reminded me to pray for my oldest son … and I did. I wouldn't have if it hadn't reminded me to do so. This handy tool reinforces how great it is to be a dad, tells me to enjoy the fall weather with my children, and even provides a small fill-in-the-blank note to thank my wife for all she does.

On top of that, the tool taught me that our eyelashes are replaced every three months, that a snail breathes through its foot, and that applesauce was the first meal eaten in outer space.

Is this fathering tool incredible, or what? It was created to help dads be the best husbands, dads, and men alive, the kind of dads that women dream of and children crave. The tool is called the You 'da Dad daily calendar, and it offers 365 days of inspiration, laughter, and manly tips.

This daily calendar won't overwhelm you with lots of difficult activities to do (like the kind that involve a tube of toothpaste, a small rodent, and an outboard motor). Instead, it's kind of like having me sit on your desk to remind you of the things you'd like to do … if only someone would remind you to do them.

This year's page-a-day calendar is filled with new fathering quotes, top 10 lists, pertinent Scripture passages, instant notes, prayer reminders, and loads of fathering tips.

Here's the best part: it only costs $10 (plus shipping, of course). In fact, this desk calendar would be a great Christmas gift for all the dads you know … way better than the chrome plunger you got your brother-in-law last year.

All you have to do is go to http://familymanweb.com/dailycalendar.htm and order your calendars so they'll be shipped to you in time to set under the Christmas tree.

Now let me apologize for sounding so info-mercialish. I promise not to do this again until next year. I just really believe that every dad ought to have one of these little calendars sitting on his desk.

Let me share the Tip of the Day for Saturday, November 5: "Ask your wife what she'd like to do today as a family. Then do it."

I think you're great!

You 'da dad!
