Tonight on Adventures in Parenting:

Getting woken up at two AM by an angry teenager is not the most common thing in our house. When Hearing the reason he was angry is, unfortunately, more common.

Donaven got out of bed and peed on Dominic’s stuffed frog.

Activate angry mom mode.

The interrogation begins. It ends just as quickly as it began. The suspect was sitting on the edge of his bed and was obviously still asleep.

When asked about the incident the next morning, he thought he went outside to pee in the yard.

Who am I?

I’ve walked a path I didn’t ask for, guided by a God I can’t ignore. I don’t wear titles well—writer, teacher, leader—they fit like borrowed armor. But I know this: I’ve bled truth onto a page, challenged what I was told to swallow, and led only because I refused to follow where I couldn’t see Christ.

I don’t see greatness in the mirror. I see someone ordinary, shaped by pain and made resilient through it. I’m not above anyone. I’m not below anyone. I’m just trying to live what I believe and document the war inside so others know they aren’t alone.

If you’re looking for polished answers, you won’t find them here.
But if you’re looking for honesty, tension, paradox, and a relentless pursuit of truth,
you’re in the right place.

If you’re unsure of what path to follow or disillusioned with the world today and are willing to walk with me along this path I follow, you’ll never be alone. Everyone is welcome and invited to participate as much as they feel comfortable with.

Now, welcome home. I’m Don.
