I've had your CTFD book, and sometimes I hear my boys quietly giggling at the cover. I didn't anticipate it would be such a guilty pleasure for them. I used to sneak my mom's dirty joke book, and they have this, which is significantly less dirty.
I’m glad I can serve as a corrupting influence on your family.
That was, after all, the real reason I wrote the book.

Who here has parenting worries? We worry as parents because we love our kids so much. Check out this funny video we made for a rad project that will give you one less worry. Me and the boys had fun making it.
If you want to help make this device a reality, go here.
(via One Less Worry For Parents)
This video is so fucking funny, you guys. Gross, but funny.
Also, for you Charlie Capen fanboys (I’m looking at you, electradaddy), there’s plenty of eye candy for you, if you’re attracted to overtired dads covered in… well, just watch.

You’re a good mother.
All of us think we’re screwing up this parenting thing. But, here’s the secret… We totally are.
Every one of us is screwing up all the time. And if we’re all doing it wrong—if that standard of “doing it right” doesn’t actually exist for anyone—then none of us can be wrong. Right?
The most important thing you can do is love your kid. And you’re doing that, so you’re a good mother.

Wes Craven died today.
I’m a huge horror fan and he was having a bit of a career renaissance during my childhood when I was really exploring the genre. Needless to say, I’ve seen every one of his films—even the experimental stuff and reboots.
I’ve written before about which horror movies I want to share with the boys when they’re old enough. A great number of Craven’s films are on the list.
Rest easy, you creepy gentleman.
