Since the beginning of time, kids tune into which parent plays what roles and prey on that. Who will say yes to ice cream? Who will say yes to a sleep over? Who will say yes to a week in Amsterdam at an opium din? It happens. I did it. I watched my sister do [...]

This is something that Sarah and I have talked about. Rather or not there should be a time limit of some type on marriages. Well, this Bavarian politician thinks there should be. “The basic approach is wrong … many marriages last just because people believe they are safe,” she told reporters. “My suggestion is that [...] Tonight’s episode hit close to home. It was a single dad with 4 children. He got a divorce 2 years ago, and we don’t know that back story. The youngest is 3. He has 3 girls. The oldest is around 9. They live in Alaska. That’s the picture. He was having lots of issues with [...] Wow…So, tonight’s Super Nanny hit me hard. The mom had 2 older boys from a previous relationship, and 3 more together. The parents never should have had more children. They said they started having major issues just months after they moved in together. They never talked to each other, only blamed each other for downfalls [...] Last year, my son went through a really hard period with spelling homework. Never with myself or Sarah, by he would, for lack of a better phrase, attack his mom. It was hard to listen to him over the phone throwing these tantrums. A couple times, I went up to get him, which really was [...] What do you do with an anniversary deferred? Ok, so Langston was alittle more poetic than I am…just alittle. My first marriage was August 12, 1995. I hate that sentence…”my first marriage”. It sounds like I’m revving up for 12 more. I was married for 9 years. Marriage is something I do not take lightly. [...] We are newlyweds…I guess. October 14. We lived in sin for about a year before that. Still, sometimes hearing the self proclaimed lifetime bachelorette/never having children Sarah say certain things catches me off guard. “Bad dog, we don’t eat Power Rangers.” It’s strange, the duality that is my house. Jack’s room stays shut most of [...] Another wednesday. Some people see it as half way through the week. Some as church night. To most, it’s not very remarkable. To me, it is the best and worst day of the week, every week. It’s the day I have my son. I look forward to it. Around 10:00 a.m. every wednesday, I get [...] Jack turned seven over the weekend. I called bio-mom a few weeks back to plan the party. I realize that we have it pretty good. She and I still talk, mostly about Jack, but sometimes we venture into family or old friends. We were married and involved in each other’s families for 9 years. I [...] |
