Make My Kids a Youtube Channel? As a dad, and content creator, and former vlogger (I may return, but in a new shape and form), I do like the concept of documenting my kids growing up.

Saturday American Breakfast My wife is amazing. Life is amazing. Saturday morning is again my favorite time of the week – pancakes, and today even bacon. It is these small things that really make life worth living. Since about 2014 she has made us pancakes for breakfast on Saturday morning (my cheat day).

Also get a reminder from my domain registrar as I bought her domain on the day of her birth (yes, I’m a geek!). Been wondering what the best way to document my child’s progress. Documenting …

Quality time with the kids, maybe it isn’t so bad being a dad by yourself with 2 kids! Had a great weekend and wanted to share.

I know I have talked about this before- but it is so true – you really appreciate your parents once you become a parent yourself. Especially since I’m a “single dad” right now – it is overwhelming. Yet at the same time, kids just show you basic, raw human nature. Want food, sleep, entertainment. And just directly showing that they …
