Doing Nothing

January 19, 2009: We've gotten lots and lots of parenting advice over the past year. The majority of it has been unsolicited, but for the most part, it has been very well intentioned. …

Meet Beverly Meyer

The Cardboard Chameleon

It's the thing that gets played with the most on Christmas morning. It's been inducted into the National Toy Hall of Fame. It's the blank canvas that can, with the cleverness of a child's imagination, swiftly transform from a a getaway car to a medieval castle to a time machine at a moment's notice. It is proof, as Thomas Edison proclaimed, that the greatest invention in the world is the mind of a child. [ Acrylic on watercolor paper, 10 x 14 inches. ] …

Would You Like Fries With That?

“Would you like fries with that?” This simple yet brilliant question helped McDonald’s make billions. It eventually morphed into, “Would you like to super-size that?” which became a symbol of our culture’s nasty habit of overconsumption. Indeed, we are conditioned to want more stuff. Bigger homes. Better appliances. Faster cars. Fancier vacations. I’m skeptical whether we are better off because of it. But there’s one question we should ask ourselves more often. It has the benefit of not only leaving our waistlines intact and our homes less cluttered, but would decrease our overall …

Adultitis-Fighting Tool: The Mom Binder

Thirty-seven weeks and counting. Baby "Poom" (as Lucy has fondly named her little sibling) should be arriving soon, and I would be lying if I said I wasn't anticipating like crazy. Will it be a boy? A girl? Who will he/she look like? How will Lucy adjust? So many things to daydream about... and, oh yeah, I'm ready to be a mobile person again -- instead of a Weeble. Luckily, Lucy is low to the ground and helps by picking things up for me. I just wish she could tie my shoes! …

What My Babymoon Taught Me About Making Dreams Come True

When we booked our first speaking gig in Alaska, neither Kim nor I had ever heard of a babymoon. According to the hip kids these days, a babymoon is like a honeymoon. Except in reverse. On an honeymoon, you relax and enjoy downtime together AFTER the big day. With a babymoon, mom and dad get away for a little R&R time BEFORE the baby comes (at which point sleep and coherent conversations become rare). Seeing the Northern Lights in person had been on my bucket list for a while, so I was curious as to what our chances were of seeing them while in Fairbanks, which is where the conference I …
