Ladies and gentlemen, Seven years old. 📷

    The pozole at Great Wolf Lodge might be in the top five I’ve had in Phoenix. Who knew?!🍳

    Great Wolf Lodge for the kids’ birthday (two of them, next week). If I survive, AMA. 📷

    2 years ago to the day, the big kid lost his first tooth just days before his 5th birthday. Tonight, just days before his 5th, our second just lost his first. Shaping up to be a household tradition.

    Remember the time I bought an expensive wine to share with my wife who had a rough week and then my toddler dumped her backwash filled cup of water and ice into my wine glass because ::checks notes:: “sharing”? Yeah, me too. Good times.

    And just like that, a first grader. 📷

    As Father’s Day gifts go, hard to beat the goldfish my daughter (18mo) shoved into my mouth while smiling. Cheers, fellow dads.

    Every year for my birthday, my kids “surprise” me with a home made cake or cupcakes. It takes more work for me to conveniently be gone, and not hear them talking to mom about “you know what.” But it’s swell all the same. 📷

    I didn’t watch the WWDC keynote. But I did take the kids to their first swim lessons. 📷

    “Dad, how do you know stuff about the past?”

    “I’m a dad. I know almost everything.“

    “Oh yeah, who was the tallest president to ever live?”

    “Abraham Lincoln.”

    ::grins in surprise:: “Well done, well done.”

    Beautiful blood moon tonight. We were able to see it at a reasonable hour in Arizona. Kids loved it. Simply stunning.

    We let momma hit up brunch and a brewery, alone, this morning after Mass. Then we joined her for the last little bit. 📷

    Cheers, again, to all the moms!

    Queued up for the evening.

    First time for the kiddos. She’s not even in Wonderland and their already enthralled.

    First MLB game for the bid kiddo at Spring Training.

    We got better seats than we deserved, I’ll tell ya that much.

    Oh, and the starting pitcher signed his ball.

    Baseball is back, folks. ⚾️
