Posted by Jesse Most of the times I’m flying solo with the girls, I pride myself on being fairly entertaining. Not tonight. I was a tad weary from a long day and a late-breaking sports story that had me phone-watching for much of the evening. Working in sports, I hesitate to refer to anything I [...]

A New Birthday Strategy
Posted by Danny There have been some changes in birthday parties this year. I think I simply approach things in a different manner than my wife did. The guest list Years past: In depth conversation about who to invite to the party. Whose feelings would be hurt if they weren’t included. Whose birthdays Stephanie had attended [...]

Sunday Post 20: Would you do it again?
Tonight as I was putting Stephanie to bed, and with tears in her eyes, she asked me, “Dad, if you had known that mom would get cancer and die, would you have still married her?” It’s interesting what the kids think about – especially at bedtime. I wonder if she’s pondered that question before or if it just [...]

My Mom
I attended Open House at the girls’ school last Sunday. You walk through their classrooms, review their work and there is a huge art exhibit in the gym. Most of the homeroom classes have attractive assignments posted in the class and throughout the hallways. I was standing outside of Stephanie’s class waiting for her to [...]

Gift Usage
Posted By Jesse Gift-giving is not one of my biggest strengths. Lisa was an amazing gift-giver but I think it’s because it gave her an excuse for more shopping. But even beyond picking things out, she had that sort of mind that was always thinking about the next birthday or Christmas coming up. Typically [...]

How can we remember all this?
This is how we learn vocabulary in our house when the mind just can’t take any more and the clock is ticking down. Kids are given a word bank and a list of definitions and must match the two. It’s all about connections. Vigorous: strong; energetic I hold my big guns (biceps) up in the [...]

The High School Decision
Posted by Danny Lisa would have handled the high school search for DJ. The applications, the visits, the entrance exams. I would have been informed at some point where my daughter was going to school. Of course I would have been consulted on finances if it was not a public institution; but, the decision would have fallen squarely to [...]

The Great Clothes Migration, Part 2, The Stephanie Saga
Posted by Danny People in this family just aren’t normal. On Saturday I began the Great Clothes Migration, Part 2, the Stephanie Saga. The two of us headed up to her room and began the process. I had her strip down to her underwear and bra so that the changing could go faster. When we [...]

Tonight’s Dinner Special: Roast
POSTED BY JESSE Since the girls wear uniforms to school all day, we do not have a dress code for the Tanner family dinner table (other than, you know, being dressed). It is advised, however, that you bring your layer of thick skin. This family game has been played before, and will surely be played [...]

Dad Knows Fashion
Posted by Danny I never took cotillion. I’m not sure why. Perhaps my parents couldn’t afford it or maybe my mom thought I was already mannerly enough. Or more likely, she felt like it was a hopeless cause. My wife did come from a cotillion family. She and her siblings all suffered through but I [...]
