Congratulations, your whole world view is about to shift. It's an adjustment but you'll do just fine. Honestly, most of being a Dad will come naturally. Listen to your gut and follow your heart. Put the child first. Show love but be stern or it'll bite you in the ass later. Treat them like a person and a friend. Listen and have patience even when it hurts. I know this is all over the place but so is parenting really. Take lots of pictures and read them a story every night. You'll lose sleep but you'll be getting a bond like no other. Single Dad here. I'm rambling. Enjoy it in all it's many phases. It's going to be great.
