She has given us … More Safe Journey, Mima

Dad Writer with Newborn
I am sitting in a rocking chair with my newborn daughter in my lap. We have spent hours rocking together today. I’m feeding her a bottle with my left hand, and thumb-typing with my right, because I don’t know if there will be time to write later. My wife is struggling in the next room … More Dad Writer with Newborn

Graduation Day
They dress in red robes and sing to say goodbye. Parents and teachers watch, clap and cry. Diplomas are passed out. Speeches are given. Pictures are taken. Then comes the lunch. Awkward conversation. More speeches. Skits. Speeches. Tears. Sobbing tears of farewell. One last song together. Goodbye teachers. Retire to the classroom. One last look. … More Graduation Day

Humor at a Young Age
Tonight at dinner my son made me laugh. He is almost four year’s old and he does give me lot’s of laughs throughout the day. But there was something about this one that made it a little special, even if it is a bit hard to describe. There was something in the delivery and content … More Humor at a Young Age

Contentment
Some things you want to go on forever. For me, my baby girl sleeping on my chest is one such feeling. She has only existed outside of her mother for just over two weeks, and yet she feels like an essential part of my life. Like I’ve known her forever. I love this little girl … More Contentment

The Sword
She tested the weight of the sheathed blade. It was heavier than what she was used to wielding, which only made sense as it was a hand and a half longer the her previous blade. Mayhaps she would need to carry it on her shoulder. Wearing at her hip would certainly make the yojans she … More The Sword

On a Quest
My wife has had a busy few weeks. First off, she was really pregnant, and that by itself seemed exhausting. And then, on the 3rd, she gave birth. Like a warrior. We’ve both been working hard to adjust to our changes. But work goes on. Case in point, she has had to finish up some … More On a Quest

My Son, Fish, and Energy
I’ve spent the last week writing about the joy that my new daughter is bringing. But it should also be said that my son is an amazing little guy as well. He is adjusting so well to the new little person we have in our home, and keeps on being smiley and full of fun. … More My Son, Fish, and Energy
