A writer remembers his father. By David Means.

Around the time my firstborn was learning to walk, my wife and I tried a tag-team approach to parenting. I'd take most of the early morning shifts and then head to the office. Most evenings, no matter what was happening at work, I'd log back in at home, and my wife would pursue her career as a modern dancer. Our schedules were so distinct that we shared a single unlimited subway pass.

Do you need a heartfelt gift for a man but have no idea what to pick? With Father's Day, Birthdays & Holidays requiring our best & utmost efforts to keep men happy with the gifts we choose, this giude will serve as a view into the mind of a family man, boyfriend, dad, stepdad or grandpa. Picks are made from talking to my husband and gramps and a little input from pals as well. I hope it helps!
