August 19th, 2008 Jeremy Schneider Posted in Home | No Comments »

A Father’s Voice

“Twinkle, twinkle?” our almost two-and-a-half year old son, Elijah, asked.

“You want to sing Twinkle Twinkle Little Star, Elijah?” his mother asked.

“Yeah,” he responded in his soft voice.

It was dinner time at the Schneider family household and as soon as Elijah started to sing, we stopped talking, straining to listen to his quiet, high-pitched singing voice. Read the rest of this entry »

August 18th, 2008 Scot McKay Posted in Lifestyle | No Comments »

I’ve been reading quite a bit lately about the “dangers” of dating single moms.

Granted, if a woman is looking specifically for a guy who can be thrust into the “father figure” role for her children as soon as possible–complete with the financial responsibility to match–I can understand the concern.

Fire Up the Grill by Ben Murphy, image by Julia Freeman-Woolpert

And I’m hoping that you’ve already had a chance to pull out the charcoal (or gas) and flip a few burgers. But now that you’re a parent and have kids running around, what about safety? Yes, (sigh) safety. Read the rest of this entry »

Pizza Dip by Harmony Brush

Boys and Their Toys

Boys and Their Toys by Howard Ludwig

My two-year-old son abuses his best friend. He regularly throws him down the stairs and bites him without remorse.

Bubba’s best friend is a terry cloth bear with a high pain tolerance. He named his six-inch companion “Buey,” most likely because it was easier to pronounce than “Bear.” If Buey could file a restraining order, it would surely be granted. Read the rest of this entry »
