Five years old.
A splash of milk.
A mama’s voice guiding gently in the background.
This is how legacy is passed—
not just recipes, but presence.
Moments like this bake more than bread pudding…
they shape the heart.

“Taste and see that the LORD is good…
Oh, the joys of those who take refuge in him!”
—Psalm 34:8–10
Sometimes one moment in worship is all it takes to bring it back into focus.
He’s still good. He’s still enough.

Caught a vibe in the snack aisle.
They bailed. I danced anyway.
Parenting isn’t just about presence—it’s about joyful presence.
Let them see you laugh. Let them see you move.
Memories > embarrassment every time.

One laundry basket.
One wild sea.
One happy kid and his dad making memories that don’t cost a thing.
This is why presence matters.
They won’t remember what you folded…
but they’ll remember this.

She’s five.
Learning how one big bill equals many small ones.
She didn’t even answer me—
because she was fully locked into the lesson with her mom.
We don’t have to wait till they’re older to teach them.
Start now.
They’re already listening.

When indecision hits the snack aisle, turn it into a countdown challenge.
Suddenly you’re not negotiating —
you’re narrating the Olympics. 🏃♂️💨
Parenting can be joyful and effective.

Little parenting trick: if your kid’s stuck in the snack aisle staring for 5 minutes, a countdown works wonders. 🎯
It’s fun and gives them a chance to practice decision-making.
Parenting doesn’t have to be a standoff.

If your wife’s overwhelmed—
by stress, hormones, or chasing kids—
you can help.
Not just by doing tasks...
but by showing her she’s not carrying it alone.
That’s leadership.

Dad Log: Day 392
They’ve trapped me beneath layers of stealth pillows.
I sense movement. Possibly snack-related.
I fear they’ve found me.
Pray for strength.
Or snacks.

No court. No net.
Just a gate, some balloons, and a bunch of kids with too much energy and not enough play.
Dads — moments like this don’t happen by accident.

For weeks we talked about this.
Planned it. Prayed for it. Waited.
And today — we rolled in and saw the fruit of that wait.
Not just a ride…
But a road to memories we will build as a family.

One of the best parts about being a work-from-home dad?
Getting to do life together.
Work still matters.
But so does riding along,
running errands,
and sharing the moment.

siopao. yummy. siopao. good.

It’s not just about the food.
It’s about showing up with love (and steamed buns).

One of the best feelings as a husband?
Waking up on a Monday excited to provide.
Not because the work is easy…
But because the why is clear.
Show up. Lead strong.
Your family is worth it.

Waited 4 hours for this slide.
Not just for the ride —
But for the payoff of patience, laughter, and flying down together under the lights.
Sometimes parenting is waiting…
And then whooshing.
