Year 4, Day 23

"No Dad! Your stick is a trumpet and mine is a guitar! No...give me yours! I want 'em both!"

Year 3, Day 363

Every time Miles wants to have a stick fight, he always graciously finds sticks for both of us. And yes, mine is always about five inches long vs. his 1-2 foot-long choices. Did I mention he gets two?

Year 3, Day 362

The kid's kicking game is coming along nicely.

Year 3, Day 360

Just a little dude, getting down on the playground.

Year 3, Day 357

On a walk today, Miles grew tired of feeling the wind in his face. So he did what any rational cyclist would.

Year 3, Day 350

This child showed up outside my window as I was wrapping up my work day. Clearly, he's up to no good. The beanie, the sticks...he's about to start trouble.

Year 3, Day 333

There comes a time in the lives of all young boys when they ask themselves the age-old question: "...but is there a way I can put the bat on the tee?"

Year 3, Day 314

When your kid comes home and wants to throw the football around before the sun goes down, you get right on that.

Year 3, Day 231

It's taken a while, but today Miles finally figured out how to pucker his lips and blow (as opposed to "FFFT"-ing through his front teeth).

Year 3, Day 226

I can't stress enough just how essential sidewalk chalk is for parents of small children.
