Seems like back in the day, we would go trick or treating around the neighborhood streets near where I grew up in Tulsa on Halloween night, and that was it.
If Halloween happened to be a Tuesday, so be it. We had a little more excitement that day and then back to it the next day [...]

First of all, I wouldn’t be all that shocked. If there’s mischief to get into, he’s liable to find it.
Here’s the way I look at my son. He has the biggest, greatest heart that any person has ever had. His 13-year-old brain, however, is sometimes in question.
That being said, I can’t imagine he’d manage to [...]

A trip to the eye doctor taught me even more about just how much my daughter is growing up.
The days of going in the exam room and doing all the talking for my kids may not totally be done. But they pretty much are as far as she’s concerned.
