Life Lesson Five Take The High Road. You’ll thank yourself later. People will eventually and more and more often, find themselves in situations where emotions and stakes are high and you’re in a position to do two things. Continue to engage with your adversary as they try to drag you down the low road into……

Police are Good
Life Lesson One Police are good. I’m starting things off in no particular order, but this first being a lesson I found myself teaching Cecelia the other day when playing Legos. We have no lack of legos and Lego people around here, and we enact play situations by building buildings, restaurants, hospitals, playgrounds, or whatever……
Don’t Rush to Judge People and Circumstances
Life Lesson Four Do some mile-walking first Similar to previous lessons but entirely different, is what to do when it comes time to judge people, and circumstances when making decisions. No one should go around being judgemental, but there are times when it’s necessary in order to size up things and make choices. Usually, three……
Don’t Buy Into The Hype
Life Lesson Three Sleep on it. This lesson has to do with standards, which you yourself set. Don’t let others set them for you or tell you what they should be. That said, set them higher than you believe you can achieve but are realistically attainable. That’s the trick. Only you will know where your……
Don’t Jump on Bandwagons
Life Lesson Two Be true to yourself. https://www.theguardian.com/fashion/2019/feb/13/at-arms-length-are-tattoos-finally-becoming-uncool Throughout my life, I’ve been a misfit. Didn’t quite fit in with this crowd, didn’t form with that crowd. It’s a search I think every person undertakes whether they want to admit it or not, but it’s obvious when you just have a look around. People are……
Life Lessons
Since I’m around my daughter 50%, or less, of her life these days, there are things which I’ll always feel are important to have her learn, with or without my assistance. {Note: As of May, 2021, Cecelia’s mother arranged things so I only see her 1 hour per week, supervised, at my cost. If I’m……
Baby Pictures
[learn_more caption=”Click here to learn more”]I’m taking the opportunity tonight to try and organize my massive media library comprised of photos and videos I’ve taken over the past decade or so, and in doing so, of course, have come across some that are simply remarkable. One, in particular, is a video of my daughter taking……
The State of Children’s Media
My daughter recently turned three, and for those unaware, that’s plenty old enough to want to be entertained with electronic devices like iPad, iPhones, and TVs/DVDs. The toddler years. Her vocabulary is developing, she’s learning to potty train, and doing daily tasks like brushing your teeth and washing your hands needs to be reinforced. So,……
Cecelia Living The Dream
Chef Cecelia prepares her imaginary Easy Mac and ice cream wearing her diaper and toque, which looks a lot like a diaper. Who wants a moose lip omelet? Joking aside, she does cook her own eggs in the real kitchen and clean up after herself, which is pretty impressive. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CDWg-nmTHp8
Revenge of the Toddler
“Like perfectly meshed gears, all my plans slip exactly into place!” DIE, PUNY MORTALS! Small in stature, big in malice. This child has Stewie-like tendencies. Cecelia at the controls of her Doomsday machine. A photo posted by Michael Musgrove (@isightphotos) on Jan 10, 2017 at 6:47pm PST Victory is hers!
