I love that my son isn’t afraid to be who he is. He doesn’t try to act harder than he is, does try to fit in with his peers. He’s happy just being, “Tre” or “Barry” depending on who’s calling him. Tonight, the girls all were at a friend’s house for dinner so I decided [...]

Any of my kids (especially Zoe) could easily have a 2-hour nightly sitcom without any writers.

One thing I hate about my kids growing up is that maturity brings about concern with impression and the older they get, the list of things I cannot blog about grows longer. When kids are little, you can blog about anything and not have to worry about there being an embarrassment factor. As they grow, [...]

Today has been quite a day… well, technically yesterday since it’s now after midnight. So much is on my mind, but I doubt it will make it to this article. It’s still pretty jumbled up there and articulating it all is probably going to be for another day. Or not. Barry leaves to go back [...]
