Coming Home
Stephanie was released from the hospital this afternoon. She got a shower and so did I. The boys were happy to finally see mama again, and she has much better luck getting the cats into the house than I do. She went to bed early and the boys and I are settling down. Here’s to…

Convenience or Is It?
My youngest asked for a walk this morning. I told him later. I got him ready a little while ago and his older brother decided he was coming too. I don’t like taking both boys out by myself but we all went for a walk to the local gas station and convenience store. It’s not…

Children are the Greatest Gift
What is the greatest gift someone could give you? Without a doubt the greatest gifts I have ever been given are my four sons. I love my children because I can see so much of myself in them. Even the things that annoy me the most about my boys I totally own. I would like…

I Should Be Reading
I have done a lot today. I’ve dealt with the trash and diapers. I’ve made food for the boys. I’ve encouraged them to pick up and entertained them. I’ve done art and blogging and social media and video games. I’ve helped with groceries and Zoomed into a church leadership meeting. I have been very busy…

Diapers, and Lightbulbs, and Boys! Oh My!
It’s way too early in the morning for me to be so awake. This is becoming more typical. My youngest son asked for a diaper so I got out of bed. I changed him and he really needed it. His brother was hovering so I changed him too even though he did not really need…

Quiet and Gratitude
Today has been pretty quiet so far. I was able to sleep in which I’m almost always grateful for. We got money for groceries and rent today. I remain grateful for the blessing of a full refrigerator and bills that are payed on time. Love and health inspire gratitude. But I think I’ve said it…

Groggy
I slept hard and late and woke up groggy. I probably would have tried to stay in bed longer, but I need to get ready for Walgreens. My wife has had more time to herself since I started billing for the boys, so she took care of them completely while I slept this morning. But…

Laundry and Motivation
Now that I’m billing for the boys I don’t technically have days off. There’s always work to do for them around the house. I also need to do my laundry today. I don’t HAVE to get out of my pajamas for any of that, but it might give me more motivation to get dressed. There’s…

Running Late
The past couple of days have been hard on my wife. She has been having trouble getting the motivation to do things like grocery shopping. But she went to do that a little bit ago. Sadly I don’t think she’ll be back in time for me to get to Walgreens promptly. I’m okay with that.…

Day Off (in D minor)
It’s been a quiet day for the first time in about a week. My wife and boys are better regulated. Our homeless man went to the job center. And I’m a little more relaxed. I joked earlier that our ducks still aren’t in a row. The little peckers are running around and hiding our spoons.…
