Tales from my journey with Kailyn
Since my separation, I’ve been chasing happiness and can’t seem to find it. There’s just something missing and I can’t put my finger on it. This blog will probably leave you with more questions than answers, but I thought I’d pick apart my present journey to find happiness.
Birthday’s are just another day in the year. But for me, I’ve always enjoyed the day because it’s a significant reminder of another year passed, and a TON of memories created.
“What if?” Is one of the phrases I fear the most and I love the most. I don’t want to live my life wondering “what if?”, but I do want to dream “what if”. I can live with “what is”, “what can be”, and “what could be”, but not a past “what if?”

As a parent, I’m sure you’ve gone to bed feeling like the “Worst Parent Ever”. You’re not alone and I wanted to write about feeling this way.

Everyone knows that divorce can rip families apart. I wanted to talk about how I dealt with feeling broken and picked up the pieces to reinvent myself. I’ve still got a long way to go, but I’m definitely more whole than I was a few years ago. Here’s my story . . .
Throughout my parenting career, Kailyn and I have had several talks about life, love and happiness. Here are 10 Things I Tell Kailyn that will hopefully serve as “thought-starters”. This isn’t a list of “THINGS YOU SHOULD TELL YOUR KIDS”, because I think those lists I’ve found online take on the “one shoe fits all” mindset. Every family is different as is every child and relationship. Here are some things I say to my K that I’d like to share with you.
