Oh good. My toddler decided to finally start his 2 PM nap at 5:33 PM.
The most white dad thing about my husband is he starts every other sentence with "anywho."
My column this morning for The Salt Lake Tribune about our recent harrowing flight with our toddler. (No paywall.) www.sltrib.com/religion/202...
Eli McCann: How our pleasant flight suddenly descended into an adventure aboard a vomit comet
Every parent can related to Eli's most recent misadventure: a toddler, happy as can be for much of the flight, suddenly begin vomiting — more than any air sickness bag could contain.

The bigger dog was bathed outside with a hose while the smaller dog watched. When we were done with that, I brought the smaller dog inside to do his more humanely in the bathtub and he was so traumatized by what he had witnessed he was just grateful and compliant.

POV: I just sneezed and he needs me to comfort him about it.
Sometimes it's helpful to remember that this extremely stupid president is living his final years in complete misery and total fear. There has not been a moment in the last decade where he has seemed even remotely happy to me. He made his bed.
I will never understand my governor. Is it cowardice or a total lack of morals or something else? Whatever it is, I have fully stopped respecting him as a person.
We went out of town for 10 days and they went and stayed with their best friend. We got back yesterday. Their eyes have not yet forgiven me.
Sitting on the couch with my husband's parents and my child, having a spiritual moment by sharing with them something really important from my culture. *I'm making them watch Sister Act 2: Back in the Habit
So we've pretty much just given up on trying to get our toddler to sleep in his own bed.
My husband just pulled two socks filled with holes from my feet and announced in such disappointment, "I insist we be better than this."
My toddler began projectile vomiting as our flight was landing today and for a moment there I think I saw the face of god.
He's a 10 but he accidentally bit my hand yesterday trying to get a treat and then I had to go down a rabbit hole to figure out if I needed a tetanus shot.
This review of my upcoming novel STITCHED completely made my day.
I spent the evening sobbing and laughing in all the best ways, so I can not recommend @elimccann.bsky.social ‘s new novel, Stitched, enough. It’s rare that I give a five star review, but this book is going to stay with me. Read it. It’s so charming and astute that it just might heal you. #booksky
I've written several books, and one of🫠 parts of publishing is self-promotion. @elimccann.bsky.social is publishing his first novel, so I'm going to help by asking y'all to follow him on his Amazon Author page. It really helps, especially for new authors. www.amazon.com/stores/Eli-W...
