I took all of 1 week paternity leave for the birth of my daughter recently, but I should be able to take off a lot more than that to help out my poor wife who is still recovering at that stage.

I wish that as a society we created a better opportunity for fathers to be present.
I have six sons and two daughters - and everyone a Flames fan.

I would not fault Mr. Giordano for taking extra time off, especially not knowing how difficult a birth it was or how much sleep was lost, but I sure hope he plays.

Huge congrats and win it for Reese! GFG
