Racism Is Alive - Parental Responsibility

Discrimination infuriates me! Stereotypes, narrow minded people and preachers of all that is bad in this world infuriate me. Just because we have taken steps forward in the eyes of the media; racism is alive and well... as is homophobia, prejudice, harassment and ridiculing people based on...

Brother & Sister

Ever since I learned that our second child was to be a little girl and that Clayton was going to be a big brother I dreamt of this moment. I didn't think it would come as quick as it did, but I'm glad that it did. I hope the bond never goes away and only grows stronger. I hope that my children...

Birth Story - I'm a Dad again!

The biggest mistake we both made from the moment we got pregnant for the second time, right through until after our little girl was born was to expect it to all go as it did the first time around.

Family Day Out & Strawberry Pie

With a toddler still in the stages of growing confident on his feet, we tend to spend most of our time making sure that he doesn't fall, being watchful of what he is putting into his mouth and keeping his hands off the floor. Our latest day out as a family saw us leave all of that mentality behind...

Childrens Hair

I'm not a fan of stereotyping but I've partially fell into that category through my life in the way that I like sports and never played with dolls growing up.
