Jonny was feeling sick today, so Tiff let him pick the book to read before bed. His choice? “Daddy’s Special Moon Book” as he called it…
Oh, and did I mention that whenever I get on the computer he comes up to me and says “Show rocketships to me daddy! Show rocketships to me!” or that when I go to work he asks “Daddy go big rocketship?”
Never underestimate the silly side of the farce…

Are your parents or grandparents interested in rockets?

Ha! I like that one. I can’t really comment much on the rocket science (never speak in ignorance) but I can say with certainty– that is a cute kid and wife.
