First, I have to get this off my chest. I’m really tickled that the wife has got two new colleagues named April and June. And it cracks me up when she says things like, “April, me and June are handling this project.” It just sounds like the other months are just slacking off, right? :p »

It’s a no brainer, but parents must be the greatest influence on their children. I know that fame and fortune isn’t on the top of my ‘to get’ list because my mother never pushed me that way. In fact, she was the one who popped her head into my room during my ‘O’ levels, and »

This is a very significant Father’s Day to Dan and I because we’ve both had absent Dads all our lives and never celebrated it. It’s even news to me that it falls on the third Sunday of June =p

A few friends said they were worried that being parents would cause a big change in their lifestyles. It is a very valid concern, and unless you have a nanny to look after Baby 24/7, it’s also absolutely true. BUT, it does not mean the end of all the things you used to do… Unless »
