Welcome to the weekend edition of the Daily Dad podcast, where on the weekends, we do a deeper dive and how to get better at our most important job, being a parent.

shoe. To learn more about the kids' mock six shoe, visit today's show notes and check it out.

We were supposed to go to Dallas.

This was, we had like this thing that the kids wanted to do, which is go to Dinosaur Valley

Park.

And then we pull into the park, which we had checked online in advance.
