Decoding Baby Diapers
What is normal? From the first days to transitioning to solid foods, here is what to look out for in your baby's diaper.
Fatherhood
Father Figure
A father reflects on the importance of family during the holiday season, particularly the constant presence of his parents and the time spent with his own children. He explores his unique approach to raising his daughter with the same tough love and lessons he gave his sons, teaching her to be strong-minded and unafraid to challenge authority. Drawing parallels to his own relationship with his father—where debates and arguments were a form of sparring that built critical thinking and resilience—he sees the same dynamic now with his daughter. Despite becoming a father as a teenager and making mistakes along the way, he hopes he has been a decent father figure to his children, representing the same freedoms God granted his own father. He closes with the hope that all three of his children will one day be great father figures themselves—especially his daughter.
On Purpose, Preparation, and the War Ahead
Watching my sons approach manhood forced me to confront the holes in my own upbringing—the things I was never taught about truth, purpose, and the world’s real battles. I’m learning that my greatest calling isn’t to protect them from struggle, but to prepare them to stand firm in it. This is my reckoning, and my resolve.

Great men are those who manage to offer what they never received—advice they never heard, opportunities they never found, and the support they never had.
