Proud Parent Thread

I'm not talking about the obvious ones here, like first day at school, first steps, first word etc. I'm talking about the ones where your kid does something and you think, 'yes, I'm doing great things as a parent here'. 

Now, you might think that these are pretty insignificant but to me, it's brilliant. 

First one - my 4 year old going up to his friend who was balling his eyes out and offering him his favourite toy train in an effort to cheer him up. (no one ever gets to touch that train, so it was a big thing for him). 

Second - after trying for a long long time, my 9 year old finally perfected the rainbow flick - brilliant! 

Third - driving along the road and my son is sat in the back seat singing along to the Stone Roses. None of the namby pamby pop shite that his mum listens to, so the music I listen to is obviously being passed along. Again - brilliant! 

The most recent one is when I took my kids on holiday and made them run around breaders screaming and shouting and generally being little shitbags in an effort to ruin his holiday, which was a resounding success by all accounts. 

What are your favourite moments as a parent?

Shit! Wrong section! Sort it please mods.

You thought it would be a proud moment of mine when my son perfected giving random people the middle finger. 

Number 1 dad. 

My lads 1st try at rugby.

My lad Swimming with no swimming aids was a massive achievement as he really had a fear of it.  Now doing 100m front crawl and back crawl.

My little girl saying she isnt the beast from weaste (my nickname for her).  She says she is the beast of Bolton.
