Father's Day 2009
Like breakfast in bed, on the internet.

Here at Babble, we have a lot to say about dads. That’s because we are dads. Okay, well, that’s not strictly true — there are a whole lot of moms up in here. But Babble also has dad writers, dad bloggers, dad photographers, a dad co-publisher, and a whole lot of dad readers. Our contributors include stay-at-home dads, international dads, celebrity-obsessed dads, stepdads, working dads, old dads, young dads — in other words, every day here at Babble is Father’s Day. But on this one you have to get, like, a tie. In lieu of that, here’s a wealth of fun father-related articles from our archives. Happy Father’s Day to all our readers! — The Babble Editors
