Home Schooling Dad?
If you don’t already know, we home school our kids. I use we as a very loose term here because honestly up to this point I have not really had a lot to do with it. To borrow a line from Dr. Ray Guarendi, I will occasional pick up a book. I hope that overContinueContinue reading “Home Schooling Dad?”
Easter
I have been meaning to write a post about Easter for a few days now. I had honestly planned to write one before Easter, but well that just didn’t happen. What is done is done so I’m working on it now instead. I wanted to talk about my Easter experience but I think I wantContinueContinue reading “Easter”
Egg Salad
I am not a huge egg salad fan. I can remember on long car trips my father used to love egg salad sandwiches. As soon as he opened the cooler the whole car would fill with that smell. It was not a bad smell, just one that you knew what it was and it wasContinueContinue reading “Egg Salad”

A set of Keys A Rally and Paralysis
This weekend, Saturday to be exact, I lost my keys. I still suspect they are in the house somewhere, but I can’t find them. I had them when I dropped my son off to volunteer and then some time after I got home they disappeared. I have looked in all the normal places, and someContinueContinue reading “A set of Keys A Rally and Paralysis”

Better yet, read this post.ContinueContinue reading “Teenagers – Oh the Horror”
Two and a Half Homilies
This weekend, because of some rather unusual circumstances I ended up going to Mass three times. Not that I mind, if nothing else by the end of the weekend, I felt like I knew a lot more about the readings than I normally do. Here is the short version of what happened: On Saturday night,ContinueContinue reading “Two and a Half Homilies”
I am Dad, and I do not baby sit
Just a quick update. Tonight my lovely wife is taking the evening to spend some time with other moms in our area in the monthly Mom’s night out. They get together and discuss issues of homeschooling, motherhood, and a whole range of other topics. This means that I am home with the kids. But IContinueContinue reading “I am Dad, and I do not baby sit”
Zeal
This weekend the gospel readings used one of those words that you don’t hear a lot in modern society. “Zeal” John 2 Verse 15 “His disciples remembered that it was written, “Zeal for thy house will consume me.” Being a writer I find word origin completely fascinating. Zeal comes from the Greek root word zêlos.ContinueContinue reading “Zeal”
