Family Has Nerve to Eat Banana Splits – For Dinner!

I met the coolest lady the other day. Jason had just finished speaking to a group of educators and this woman and her 17-year-old daughter came to our table for a visit. They both wore genuinely contagious smiles and I knew right away that I was going to enjoy this conversation. In a crowd of stressed-out professionals, they had a MUCH different vibe. They came to share stories -- things they have done over the years to live this lifestyle that Jason had just spent an hour talking about. One of the stories warmed my heart instantly. …

Small Rebellion #1: Project Pancake!

We're doing something new and a little nuts. We've been writing a lot lately about this idea of small rebellions, those small but mighty acts of defiance against the rules that don’t exist and the most effective way of defeating Adultitis.

Frank shared with me a story from his childhood, starring his father, a career Marine. The family operated pretty much as you might expect under the head of a someone who’d spent his whole life in the service and saw action in two wars. The kids had buzz cuts. The household was in perfect order. And when Dad spoke, you listened. …

Breakfast Routine Upended by China, Heart-Shaped Pancakes

Mornings in most households are a little like attending a NASCAR event. It's intense. Lots of noise. You've got people moving at varying speeds. And in the end, you're hoping everyone gets across the finish line (out the door) without a major catastrophe. Ever wonder what your day would be like for yourself and your kids if the morning was more like a symphony? …

escape adulthood?

Escape Adulthood is the cure for the common life. It's not about escaping reality or responsibility. It's about breaking free from the vile clutches of Adultitis and rediscovering the secrets of childhood that can lead to a life filled with passion, wonder, and joy.
