TommyLog – Saying I’m Sorry

Sometimes saying you are sorry can be the hardest part of being a dad, but it’s one of the most important things to do. You cannot be 100% right all the time and admitting you are wrong seems to put things into perspective. I’m not a fan of being wrong, but when I am…admitting it helps solve many problems. One of the big parts of being a father is learning from your mistakes. Saying sorry is key to that process!

TommyLog – Family Togetherness

Just like on my new favorite show Duck Dynasty, a family that plays together, stays together. What would the world be like if we actually loved to be around our parents and didn’t spend every waking moment trying to get away from our families?

I want to make my home as inviting as possible. One that friends want to be around. I also love the extended family prayer at the end of every episode. That’s how I want to live my life!

TommyLog – There is No Suicide Solution!

This last week, suicide has been in the news and has also hit a bit too close to home. The son off a good friend had a suicide scare. As i’m talking to him, borderline tears, I realize I got nothing. I’m no help what-so-ever. I have never dealt with this issue before and I certainly hope I never have to. Just so tragic all around!

TommyLog – Star of the Week

This week Emma was “Star of the Week” in class which means a parent gets to read to her. Mom had to work so Dad wins WOOT!!! What a GREAT experience it was to be able to go to her class and see all the smiling faces there. I read Pinkalicious Play Date and it was AWESOME!! I could not help but think of the kids in Connecticut that lost their lives just a few hours earlier to the hands of some really evil man. It just brook my heart to know what I have and know what they lost. I’m at such a loss to understand.
