OK, so I’m in a cereal rut.
Writing the last blog (
The Golden Torus and The Enchanted Pants) entry brought back memories from when my son was still in diapers and started eating cereal. He was already eating table food, when my wife and I started discussing getting him some fun, sugary cereal as a “dessert [...]
I was not the kid that was part of a boy scout troop nor was I sent off to summer camp. I imagine that had I been I may not have gotten into some of the trouble I did. All the good kids must have been at one of those camps or activities.
With summer bearing [...]
My wife is a third generation medical professional. She’s a Registered Nurse on a Neonatal Intensive Care Unit to be exact. When you couple this with the fact that we speak TO our children rather than speaking down at them (do you have an owie?! Let me see that cutsy wutsy?) it creates some interesting [...]
I’m not quite sure how it happened. It seems I should have just gone along with the
guinea pig.
All I’ve ever wanted to do, since meeting my wife, was give her all she wanted. Easy right?
It wasn’t so long ago, just 4 years now, that we hated our home. We wanted out more than anything [...]
(I thought I’d have a little fun with this one.)
Once there was a beautiful little girl who sat in a tall chair. She had reached an age of maturity where she could be introduced to a magical new morsel, the Golden Torus. Her parents placed offerings of the scrumptious toroids in front her. She would [...]
My life is good. The few complaints I have are brought forth, more often than not, by a bad day or a bad moment. Each of them fleeting though never as quickly as one might hope when in them. It’s in these low times that I reflect on the child in me and those things [...]

I took the girls to the mall this morning. While strolling along my three year old asks, “Was that a boy or a girl?” while gesturing toward a guy walking by.
I barely caught this guy in my periphery but it was enough to be relatively certain he was a he. “That’s a boy”
Girl: But he has a necklace on
Dad: Some men were necklaces
Girl: Daddy! That is silly. Boys don’t wear necklaces!
Dad: Sure they can. I don’t, but some boys do.
Girl: Oh (while giggling) they need to be a real boy like you
Dad: Huh … thanks kid
This looks like fun -Have you ever wanted to print a comic book hero right from your PC? Me either, until I saw this link from ParentHacks where you can do just that. Printable, foldable comic book characters and super heroes.
Well, well, well! -My wife and I were chatting about a friend who was having a drinking water well drilled on his property.
"They're down to around 200 feet now." I said.
"What kind of well are they digging?" My son interjected.
"Well, a water well of course. What other kinds of wells are there?" I said matter-of-factly.
My son said, with DUH intonation and attitude, "Wishing Wells!!!"
I laughed so hard I couldn't catch a breath. He comes up with some good ones.
Pink, the new black -I've uploaded a couple of my sons pre Junior prom pictures to the D is for Dad Flickr group. It was a blast taking the photos and we are so grateful he thought to include us. You can get to the Flickr group by clicking any of those images in the upper right corner.
Yeah, right there. :)
