  • The cul de sac

    Posted on Sunday November 15th, 2009 at 15:42 in papa prattle

    The cul de sac hasn’t moved in all the time we’ve been here. This may seem like an odd observation but the cul de sac hadn’t been here when we found this place we call home. Maybe this is why it holds some of its magic because it came after us,...

  • A little too much grace

    Posted on Tuesday October 20th, 2009 at 21:29 in humor central

    We say grace before every meal and go to church every Sunday. It’s so nice to see my little two year old getting into the proverbial “swing-of-things” in that regard. After church last Sunday I took the family to a local Chinese Buf...

  • Le Freak

    Posted on Wednesday September 30th, 2009 at 09:12 in humor central, 46, pointless posts

    I place little stock in Astrology and Zodiac signs but I do find it humorous though that they are uncannily spot on when it comes to describing most of my personality traits. According to the Roman Zodiac I am a Libra. It’s the Scales which sym...

  • We remember!

    Posted on Friday September 11th, 2009 at 14:35 in heart strings

      On Patriot Day, we cherish the memory of the thousands of innocent victims lost, extend our thoughts and prayers to their families, and honor the heroic men and women who risked and sacrificed their lives so others might survive. George W. Bus...

  • Warning Will Robinson! Danger! Danger!

    Posted on Thursday August 27th, 2009 at 14:29 in public service, papa prattle, pointless posts, heart strings

    Not too long ago I posted about our Chicago vacation. This incident happened while we were at the Shedd Aquarium, and I had forgotten all about it until just a couple of days ago. It’s been on my mind ever since and I wanted to put "pen to ...

  • When Drama is King

    Posted on Sunday August 23rd, 2009 at 08:15 in papa prattle

    There have been, and continue to be, a lot of negative things rolling in and through my life the last several weeks. The kind of things that throw a heavy blanket over the myriad wonderful and positive things that are simultaneously occurring. Chief ...

Hi!� My daughter, Gina and I,� just launched her new business called� 
KidsFunCards.com� and she would love to be considered for a� 
"Featured Product" review.

Gina started making Lunch Cards because her little girls would resist� 
going to school in the morning and her eldest, 7 at the time, cried at� 
night about how she sat alone at the lunch table and how humiliating� 
it was.�  Her heart broke for them, and so she knew she had to do� 
something.� 

Before Gina quit working to be with her girls, she was a� 
costume illustrator for Hollywood feature films. So she decided to make� 
illustrations (cartoons) with riddles and jokes and real wacky� 
stories that she knew would make the kids giggle.

It has been 3 years now, and her kids go crazy to go to school if� 
there's a lunch card in their lunch-and her 9 year old now has a huge� 
lunch-bunch. But best of all she can include a lunch card as a TREAT,� 
thus excluding sugar if she wants to. With America's growing obesity� 
crisis, not to mention households now have 2 working parents to� 
survive, we are hoping these lunch cards help parents "send a hug in a� 
lunchbox", that is healthy!!!

As a grandparent, I send KidsLunchBoxCards cards to my grandchildren through
the mail. So now, I've achieved "hero status" wtih them and their friends.

Our family decided to launch KidsLunchBoxCards and share with other kids, and� 
hopefully help other parents with the same problems Gina experienced!

DisneyFamily.com just included Gina's cards in their "8 Back to School� 
Products We Love" segment. We are thrilled, and yet unsure of the� 
mysteries of the web! here's the link to peek:

Please check out our site, KidsFunCards.com. We can send samples. Just advise your address.

Thank you! Paul

Hi Dads, i can say this is a great blog. I would like to add you to my blogger blog and come back here to read from time to time.

I have missed a Dad in my life although there was a figure. Currently am raising a daddyless child - so reading stories being written by Dads tugs a chord in my heart.
