Discipline and Reprimanding (Redone)

Ok first of all, I would like to apologize. It was’t until Friday night that I realized this post did not go through for some reason. While I don’t remember everything I wrote, I will try my best to do so from memory as much as possible. My six year old nephew is a smart […]

The Waking Up Too Early Struggle

Since birth, Cydney has made her own plans. She forced herself to be born on Valentine’s Day (I’m convinced) just making it at 11:25 PM. She takes naps when she feels like and goes to bed in the same fashion as well. For the last few days Cydney has been getting up around 7:45 AM. […]

A Post About Relationships

Normally Wednesdays are dedicated to the struggle and I definitely have one but I will share that tomorrow.

I had begun speaking to my friends who lived in the DC Metro area about trying to find government positions and somewhere with great benefits. I had started […]

The Weekend In Pictures: Thanksgiving and Birthday Edition

My birthday was thanksgiving this year. Due to all of the craziness last year, this was my first birthday with my daughter which made it extra special.

Thankful That 26 Is Over

5, 16, 22, 27… These are the ages I’ve turned when my birthday was on Thanksgiving. It’s pretty cool because every few years all of the family is together on your day and you are guaranteed the best dinner of the year. I don’t try to take advantage so generally, I only make one request: […]

The Uncle Chad Struggle

Today’s post will be on the short side for those who are traveling today and its late. Now, there is nothing I enjoy more in the world than being called “Daddy” with eyes that light up like nothing else. You wait a good year and change for them to talk and a little longer to […]

As Promised: Cydney Performs Cosign

Yesterday morning I made a post on Twitter saying that if the blog reaches 3,000 views I would post a video of Cydney performing one of her favorite songs, SWV’s “Cosign” when I wrote that we were at about 2,950 views. As of 10:14 AM, the number is 3,190. As a man of my word […]
