Awkward questions from children: Daddy, what’s in your willy?

The many questions that a 4 year old asks are the stuff of legend.  Sometimes the questions from children will be earnest and straight forward.  It’s those other times when your children ask questions that are unexpected, innocent or just downright weird.

A trip to purchase condoms gets awkward for dad

When I was 13 or so I went to the drug store to buy some condoms.   A group of guys dared me to do it because I was the ‘craziest’ and ‘would do anything’.   I was nervous when I bought the condoms and forgot what we did with them afterwards.  I think I just peddled off on my Huffy, went to a friend’s house and read comic books in their tree house.  Continue reading A trip to purchase condoms gets awkward for dad

Moms make the news all the time, but the fact that they are a mother rarely factors into that.  These stories illustrate why moms are great.  Well, the first 2 illustrate that fact, the third one is a desperate PR stunt by an entertainer.
