We got Tiny a cardboard castle. It was great. Then we realized that we live in a moist, semi-tropical climate and despite the fact that it’s January (did you hear that, weather? JANUARY!) it is too warm and humid for a cardboard castle to survive very long without getting all droopy. We packed it away [...]

It’s a Lego kinda Christmas, so the ornament I’ve made is inspired by everyone’s favorite building blocks. We can barely wait to bust out the Lego Star Wars advent calendar. Yoda Claus!

I started the conversation: “How are you, Galina?” Galina: “My puppy – I mean my baby doesn’t feel good. She has a pink eye. And my Daddy doesn’t feel good.” Jules pipes in at this point: (patting my face) “My Daddy feels good. I just got four stitches.” (which he did, like 6 months ago) [...]

Each day that passes marks another leap in Tiny’s understanding of the world. He’s becoming a kind, thoughtful and reflective person – exactly the child I would have picked from a lineup if I had the opportunity. I hate it. He can dress himself, feed himself, go to the bathroom himself, put himself to sleep [...]

Hard to believe, but that’s all me. I was born this way. No surgical enhancements whatsoever.
Late in 2007, around our first wedding anniversary, Mrs. G and I found out that Tiny was on his way. That Christmas I commemorated his anticipated arrival with an ornament; it was a bun in an oven. Each Christmas since then, I’ve made a new one. On Tiny’s first Christmas I made a cast of [...]
Tiny has been trying to seriously injure himself for the last two and a half years. He has employed various means including, but not limited to: doors, floors, walls, bats, cats, slides, shoes and concrete. This time it was a rock lodged in his head that prompted a worried call and an MMS from his [...]
Children, especially toddlers, have tiny bodies with great, huge, heavy heads, and very little good sense. So any time they move (which in Tiny’s case is all the time) it’s like they’re challenging the world to a head-butting contest that they are destined to lose. Today, though, it was another kid who stepped in front [...]

I got my birthday present a week or so early (Thanks, Mrs. G!). It’s a fantastic Digital SLR camera. And while I still love taking lo-fi shots with my phone, I am really happy to have the opportunity to try my hand at portraiture. Now if that new portrait lens would somehow find its way [...]
Tiny, who’ll be 21 months old Thursday (that’s “almost two” for people who favor solar age above lunar), saw some change on a chair in my bedroom this morning and became very excited. He really enjoys putting coins in his piggy bank, so I told him he could have them if he helped me count [...]
