Ya know what never crossed my mind? The idea of my kids not getting along. Shoot, I have sisters, and when we were younger, we never fought. Things were always amicable. I think. I don’t really remember. It was long time ago. Anyway, when J was a baby, B would constantly say how much he loved her. He would […]
Yep, September’s here, so that means one thing – back to school time for kids. That picture above is from last year, on B’s first day of kindergarten. Now, I’m a cool dude, but I can’t front. That day was pretty emotional. My lil man was now a little man, gettin’ his edumucation on! From then on, I honestly thought that […]
WWE Superstar John Cena Is Ruining My Life! We always try to expose our kids to new and different things. Sports, hobbies, activities, whatever. Sometimes they’re feeling it, sometimes they’re not. Sometimes they feel it for a while, get bored and move on to the next one (word to Jay-Z!). Regardless, we just keep throwing stuff at them, because we […]
Ever notice that, sometimes, kids say stuff that make you do a double-take, like you can’t believe what you just heard? Shoot, I talk to B and J for long enough, and I’m saying “What!?” more often than Lil Jon. No rhyme or reason, either. Doesn’t matter what their little moods are. The randomness out of their mouths is always […]
I was out for drinks recently with some buddies. We were shooting the breeze, when the conversation turned to my kids and how they were doing. I told them some stories. As I was telling them, a realization occurred to me, and I blurted out “B can be such a douchebag!” My buddies gave me the ‘I can’t believe that […]
I used to be sort of punctual. But now, when I need to go somewhere with the family? We’ll get there when we get there. I’ve noticed that small kids are blissfully oblivious, in their own little worlds, operating on their own clocks. And their watches aren’t set to the same time as yours. Like, not even close. […]
You know, sometimes the only thing harder than putting the kids down for bed, is getting them to sit down and eat. There’s no rhyme or reason for it, either. Stuff they like one day, they hate the next, so they won’t touch it. Stuff they hate one day, they like another and will insist on that in place of […]
My kids, they work hard, and they play hard. Sometimes, to the point that they exhaust themselves mid-play and pass out. I call those times the TKO (Toddler Knock Out). I don’t get it. Like if I’m tired and cooking, I don’t fall asleep on the oven. If I’m sleepy while playing baseball, I don’t collapse on third base. Anyway, […]
Remember that show, where Bill Cosby would talk to some lil’ children, and the kids would say the most random things? Sometimes, that stuff was hilarious, just straight jokes. I used to think that the kids must have been actors or something. However, I understand now that, nah, they weren’t actors. Just from talking to B, and then being […]
