Being a parent can be an odd experience. By the very nature of trying to manage a small crew of non-expendables into a squished van or through a crowded parking lot or through a sit down meal….well, in order to do that, a certain amount of coersion is sometimes necessary. And we end up making [...]

May Day = Classic Human Fail

Classic snippet from my children and from humanity. Yesterday, at about 7:00 pm, I was a happy man. I was home with my children, we had just played kickball and nine lives in the backyard, and had come back in the house. People were happy and nobody was crying. Nobody was asking for anything. We [...]

My wife Teresa and I get the opportunity to go out and talk to different folks about Marriage and particularly about NFP and Contraception. Over the years, we have figured out something.

Ha! Wouldn’t it be great to write a blog post all about how women need to act? Wanted to grab your attention. This post will be way less courageous than that, and hopefully a bit more nuanced. My starting point for this post is the following. That you are a woman who first and foremost [...]
I Think This Counts As Ironic

My wife and I don’t think that Catholic schools should share the most intimate details of sexual activity with primary grade school children. We believe that should be left to parents.

The Story of Three Girls

Girl Number One I was at a high school football game one September Friday night in 1988; and like all the junior high boys was spending much more time hanging out with friends and thinking about talking to girls than actually watching the game. And while I was chatting away on the grassy hill just to the side of the [...]
