Solo bike rides are one of Beckett’s favorite things of late.Though he’s usually up for company, most of the time he’s hitting the streets by himself because he doesn’t want to wait until the time is right for everyone else.For a couple weeks, our 12-year-old has gone where he said he was going to go… Read more »

When is it okay for kids to hang out with other kids?I’m not talking sleepovers and participating in contact youth sports here, although I look forward to those days in the future.

It’s always fun to watch the reactions from the kids when informed I need their help around the house or out in the yard.Carson, 10, will immediately drop whatever he is doing to lend a hand. No matter what I’m asking him to do, he always initially reacts by making a muscle with his bicep…. Read more »

With lots of time to think these days, I am wondering if pre-virus life with my children will ever return. It’s going to be tough to embrace after all this isolation and simplicity.Of course, there may be no choice here, as it’s going to be sometime before life begins to take on whatever this new… Read more »

One clear positive from weeks of isolation has been a closer relationship with my kids.It’s been amazing to observe over these last five weeks.Though only 18 months apart in age, Beckett, 11, and Carson, 10, are as different as they come.

Huge kudos to my wife Pam today, as she has adjusted to her role homeschooling our boys with grace.Though she is her own harshest critic, I think she’s doing an amazing job juggling both kids. She’s hard on herself because she never wants to underachieve. Whether it’s a yard job, cleaning, doing her job, working… Read more »
