Being a parent is hard. I know your shocked. Something I am realizing more and more is that being a step parent can be way harder.
I watch my wife…mother of my youngest son…and marvel at how well she handles him. She may disagree, but I am really amazed at her as a mother. [...] I remember my father scaring the shit out of us when he would fall asleep in the evenings, watching TV, and stop breathing. Should we poke him? Is he OK? Then he’d jump start breathing again. It is frightening. So I have Apnea. Yea! Went through the sleep test. Confirmed it. Got the C-PAP machine. [...] Life sometimes takes over and the blog sphere suffers in my absence. I realize you have all (6 of you) been waiting for me to write…something. Well, the boys are older. Jack weighs almost 100 lbs and is playing Basketball…well. He’s a deffinent difference maker on defence. I’m really proud of him…now if we can [...] Ok. I have not talked about this, but Sarah was let go (fired) from her new position with a local hosting company after a couple months. So, anyway, here we are. Me, a full time sales job in a recovering market, and her, without full time employment. Let’s throw in insurance, child support and [...] You automatically think of cars or sports or tits…probably a little nut scratching. Things that women don’t understand or talk about. Today I was reminded that man talk can also means dad talk. A friend of mine called and ask me to lunch. We met at a Cajun place. The nut scratching began…each our own [...] this is bound to get maudlin…you’ve been warned. Jack was sick over Christmas. He was only with me for about 5 hours. His temp was around 103 for some of that. Christmas night it peaked at 104. The reset of the weekend it hovered in the low 100′s. he had very few other symptoms…slight cough and [...] Wow…2 years have gone by since you came into my life. I remember being in the delivery room with your mother, trying to notice every detail of the room so I could always remember it…should have taken more pictures. the first time I saw you…with your head full of black hair. it’s now blond, like [...] I guess sleep overs aren’t that big of a deal for most folks, but this weekend was Jack’s first at our house. It was kinda a big deal because of that. I had never met Jack’s friend and only spoke briefly to his mom on the phone. This is one of Jack’s best friends. They live 2 [...] I remember when my ex and I first separated. I lived for every moment I could steal away with my son. That first year, It would just be me and him. If he wanted to do it, and I could pull it off, we did it. Movies, picnic, video games, videos…I tried to make it happen. [...] My parents and Aunt came up to watch Jack’s football game Saturday. They won 27-0…or something like that. They have only lost one game this year, and that was while Jack was at the Alabama game with me. He IS the team…i kid.(He’s awesome!) The most awesomeness’s part of the game…the swarm of bees that [...] |
