That’s just one of the great questions my son Brock asked me yesterday.
As a fan of the Batman comic, I know that Bruce Wayne’s parent’s were murdered by a thug right in front of a young and impressionable Bruce. But I don’t know the name of Batman’s mommy.
The boys (4 and 2 and a [...]
Just a few days into being a father a three boys, I find myself very observant.
The boys are absolutely beautiful. Each is very different in unthought of ways. They all make me laugh and tear up at the wonder that they are.
There are so many confusing, bewildering, crazy things about this adventure of life that [...]
Really, we got stopped. The story is at the bottom of this post.
Announcing… William Franklin Doherty was born on June 30 at 3:36 pm. He weighed in at 7 pounds, 9 ounces and measured 21 inches long. Mommy and Will are doing great. Brody and Brock are loving their little brother … Brock calls Will [...]

We’re waiting for our third baby, which should arrive in about a week. If the ultrasound pictures are accurate, it should be our third boy in 4 years. Living in Branson where boys can be boys is exciting. Thinking about how to train our boys on when and how [...]
Jodi and the boys leave tomorrow for Denver. I’ll be joining them in Denver on Sunday afternoon. The gameplan is to hang with her parents until the baby is born and stay up there a few days after the little man arrives before heading back to Branson.

According to my brother-in-law (and father of of 3), that’s that way it works. Other dads of three say the same thing… along with more gray hair, or increasing lack of hair or, or complaints about their membership fees to Starbucks anonymous (caffeine is one of God’s [...]
This is the last week of school.
It’s a busy week. Our last youth group of the school year is tonight… and you have to finish strong. I’m putting together the senior slideshow for graduation… and its gonna look extra sharp. There are school board meetings and community functions happening this week that I need to [...]
The kindergarten teacher has no belly button.
Really, he doesn’t. He had surgery this week which resulted in his belly button being removed and Jodi subbing for his K-1 class all week. That means 4 straight Daddy Brock and Brody Days. I used to be afraid of those days. Now I love [...]
Okay, so there’s a poultry theme going on here.
This evening we were driving to some friends’ house for dinner and there were several wild turkeys on the road. As I slowed down and pointed them out to Brody (who turns 4 in 2 months - holy cats!), one of the turkeys flew away. [...]
Brock is a fast learner.
Two days ago Brock and I went out to feed our chickens. This is one of Brock’s favorite things to do with daddy. He knows how much to feed the hens, where to find the eggs, and how to gently (for the most part) hand the eggs to daddy. [...]
