How I ruined my kids’ day before 7 a.m.

Pondering how I can make them miserable.

Happy Friday! Here are the ways I managed to ruin a perfectly good morning and make my kids scream at me by being a monster of a human being:

  • Ground the coffee beans.
  • Poured the coffee.
  • Did not allow Twin B to sit on my lap while I was in the bathroom.
  • Used the microwave to reheat my coffee.
  • Asked Mister Man to put down the window scraper for the car.
  • Didn’t put Twin A in time-out for playing quietly by herself.
  • Provided a yellow fork with a red plate. EVERYONE KNOWS THEY SHOULD MATCH.
  • Had hair.
  • Didn’t finish my coffee.

How is your parenting going today?

Who is the YCD?

I look like this most of the time.

I’m a father of four kids under the age of 5, husband to my greatest blessing, and a reborn-a-couple-of-times Christian. Professionally I'm an editor, writer, and creative consultant, but my real job is trying to be a better husband and father. I started YCD because fatherhood is really damn hard, and we don’t talk about that enough. Let's change that.
