Synopsis: If you can change a diaper in an airplane lavatory ... If you can recite The Cat in the Hat by heart ... If you find cookie crumbs in your pocket ... . . . then you're a dad who'll get a good laugh-and inspiration-from In the Beginning . . . There Were No Diapers. Tim Bete understands that in the midst of the challenges of parenting there's always a chance to smile and recognize the miracle of the young life that is yours to care for. His real life stories will make you laugh out loud and they'll fill you with a sense of gratitude to God for this marvelous calling. Drawn from his beloved column, "Where I Live," each story is an insightful and uplifting lesson in parenting. With self-effacing humor and a playful sense of fun, Bete helps you to smile and relax, to enjoy parenting a little more, and to worry a little less. Permeated by a sense of faith but never preachy, In the Beginning . . . There Were No Diapers will open your eyes to the little miracles of daily life-when your child finally goes potty in the toilet, eats a vegetable, or finds first base. And once your eyes are open, the lessons begin to arrive every day. Whether you're doing the 3 a.m. feeding or taking the training wheels off a bike, Tim Bete will remind you why you're doing it. He'll keep you on track. And he'll make you laugh! Discover for yourself why readers are saying: "I laughed, I cried," "My sides split," and "The funniest thing I've ever read!"
