As she&#8217;s a mere one month away from the start of summer and more importantly &#8211; her graduation from Kindergarten to 1st Grade &#8211; her class has begun cobbling together...]]></description>

A boy and his dog just seemed like such a cool, mythic thing &#8211; like an Old West gunslinger with his faithful steed. The sight of a boy scampering alongside his bounding companion felt ripped from legend. Iconic &#8211; and something...]]></description>

And worse yet &#8211; we&#8217;re now much close to the heart-racing teen years than we are to his first fledgling steps forth into this world. I&#8217;ve said it...]]></description>

Enticed by the allure of free Disney tickets, we got suckered into a time-share scheme and...]]></description>

Earlier today, Andi and I took a trip to Colin&#8217;s elementary school to watch our blossoming second-grader take another huge leap forward in his everyday struggle with a significant social-emotional developmental delay. I&#8217;ve...]]></description>

Plus, somebody has to do their part to insure chivalry reigns in this text-crazed society. So, all you need to know is that today is my wife&#8217;s &#8216;Something Something&#8217; Birthday. But if it&#8217;s absolutely...]]></description>

Positioned just behind her left hind leg, the vet encouraged us to have a biopsy done to...]]></description>
