Manual Dexterity

This won't surprise you, but I have never heard my Dad use "baby talk" in my life. He speaks the same way to a tiny infant as he does to his doctoral candidates.

This video is quintessential Daddoo. This is how my Dad once played with his children, and how he currently plays with his grandchildren. It's the same way my Pops (my grandpa) talked with me, and anyone who knew him is not surprised in the least. It's sweet and endearing and perfect.

This one's a keeper. The video and the Daddoo.

I love the way Dadoo interacts with his grandchildren. He respects and honors them as individuals- even when they're two years old.

You are not kidding, it is indeed quintessential Dadoo

I love Dean. That's great Jenny! You are going to be so glad that you have those moments captures on tape.
