Tell me if this sounds familiar …

Dada is with the kids while Mama is elsewhere in the house (or the backyard) having some alone time.

Everyone seems to be having a good time.

Then, out of the blue, a kid decides I MUST HAVE MAMA NOW!

Despite Dada’s best attempts to divert, the child now has one unwavering goal … get attention from Mama.

This may involve said child running away from Dada.

Or, simply becoming intolerable until Mama is found.

Stopping the child from finding Mama may mean physically blocking their movement. Or, in extreme cases, physically (and lovingly) restraining them.

No one wins in these scenario. Yet, that’s what often happens.

Special time with Dada has degenerated into me running interference.

Crying ensues.

No one is happy.

And poor Mama … all she wanted was a few minutes to herself.

She gives and gives so much - all day long.

Now, during her time off, she must endure the sounds of misery coming from the rest of her family.

She is distracted yet again because she dared do something for/by herself.

I don’t know about your family, but this happens almost daily in mine.

From the other dad’s I talk to, it’s a pretty common theme.

As long as Mama is reachable, Dada is merely a plaything.

A temporary distraction from what the child wants most.

I’ll be honest - it takes a toll on my emotions.

Dads? Do you agree?

My First Backpacking Camping Adventure 🏕 2 Families + 1 Lake + 0 Cell Service = ∞ Bliss Thank you thank you thank you for this majestic trip … and for this opportunity to recharge. An entire forest to ourselves. A lake with shallow water for the kids to play all day. Redwood trees surrounding us to provide much-needed shade. No work. No chores. No responsibilities. Nothing to do … except for the regular duties of a parent, of course. 😂 All four kids played harmoniously. Mostly. They dug trenches in the sand. They put on floaties and went out into the lake while we sat along the shore keeping watch. Each parent got at a little bit of time to themselves. And, we each got some one on one time with each of our kids. What a gift. TURNING OFF THE MIND What I loved most was how quickly thoughts of work went away. On a normal day, my mind is a broken record. How to design a new website for someone … or change the menu structure of one of mine What to write in a blog post. How to get more biz for myself or for my clients. And endless stream of ideas. A never ending to do list. When we arrived to the lake, it all disappeared. I sat on the chair (or in the dirt), thinking about nothing. Watching the world go by. Enjoying the present moment. Truly glorious.

Thank you thank you thank you for this majestic trip … and for this opportunity to recharge.

An entire forest to ourselves.

A lake with shallow water for the kids to play all day.

Redwood trees surrounding us to provide much-needed shade.

No work.

No chores.

No responsibilities.

Nothing to do … except for the regular duties of a parent, of course. 😂

All four kids played harmoniously. Mostly.

They dug trenches in the sand.

They put on floaties and went out into the lake while we sat along the shore keeping watch.

Each parent got at a little bit of time to themselves. And, we each got some one on one time with each of our kids.

What a gift.

TURNING OFF THE MIND

What I loved most was how quickly thoughts of work went away.

On a normal day, my mind is a broken record.

How to design a new website for someone … or change the menu structure of one of mine

What to write in a blog post.

How to get more biz for myself or for my clients.

And endless stream of ideas.

A never ending to do list.

When we arrived to the lake, it all disappeared.

I sat on the chair (or in the dirt), thinking about nothing.

Watching the world go by.

Enjoying the present moment.

Truly glorious. ...

I fell in love the day I met Carrie. At least, that’s how I like to remember the story. The year was 2002 and it was my first day of work after graduating college. A coworker was giving me the grand office tour, introducing me to everyone in the company. I can still clearly picture Carrie sitting there at her cubicle. Smiling. Warm. Friendly. Kind. Beautiful. This was someone I wanted to get to know! Over the next few years, a beautiful friendship blossomed. We were on the company softball team together. She invited me to join her non-work kickball team. We ate lunch together and chatted endlessly on AIM throughout the day. She showed me parts of Washington, DC, that I never knew existed. Through Carrie, words like camping, hiking, and solo travel entered my life. Her friends became my friends … And, they all knew something that neither of us were ready to admit to each other. We were in love. I had never met a woman like Carrie before. She was so confident. Outgoing. Strong. Silly. Compassionate. And that cackle … Getting Carrie to laugh was my favorite thing to do! It still is. Then, just as we began to date, the other shoe dropped. Carrie was quitting her job and moving to Nicaragua to join the Peace Corps. Um … what? She suggested that we go our own ways for the next two years. Live our own lives. When she was done, if we were meant to be together, we would find each other. I never liked that plan. I was scared to lose her. Couldn’t imagine life without Carrie. So, before she left, I flew out to California to try and save the relationship. I must have done something right, because she visited me in DC again shortly before leaving for Nicaragua. It was then that we decided to give the long distance relationship thing a chance. There’s a lot more story to go, but IG cuts won’t let me put it all here. The short version is, today is our 10 year anniversary and I love my wife! If you want to keep reading this story of love, travel, and life outside the comfort zone, tap over to the comments.

I have no idea who I am anymore. I recently went to a concert by myself … and left with an existential crisis. Who am I when I’m not with my family? What is my place in this world? Where do I fit in? What brings me joy? Do I really want to be at this concert? What does “normal” even look like these days? ⌛️ ONCE UPON A TIME … I used to be “cool” - or, so I thought. I went to parties, concerts, and events. I had various social circles that I regularly hung out with. I was a social butterfly who loved being with people. …. Or was I? … Thinking back on it, there was always a certain level of social anxiety in my interactions. It was just hidden by copious amounts of alcohol. I gave that up seven years ago. At first, I struggled to make friends without my old fallbacks. How could I have a conversation without good old liquid courage? Having kids is only exacerbated the situation. Carrie and I moved to Santa Cruz a month before we had Bodhi. That was almost 6 years ago. I can count the number of friends I have here on one hand. The majority of people that I interact with are other parents who Carrie has brought into our life. I love these people deeply. They are my community and family … but, I don’t really call them to hang out. If my kids aren’t there, I am probably not hanging out with these people. I certainly don’t go out to bars, concerts, or anywhere else without someone in tow. In fact, the last time I went to a social event by myself was in 2013 … in Cambodia. 8 years is a long time to go without flying solo. Continued in comments …..

Do you celebrate your half birthday? Last year, I casually mentioned to Bodhi that it was his half birthday. He became extremely excited and wanted to plan a celebration. In his mind, Bodhi was getting: Gifts. Decorations. A special event. Candles, cake, and yummies. He wanted the works. However, we didn’t quite realize the extent of what he expected … until he later shared his disappointment with the lack of fanfare. This year, we decided to have a proper celebration and asked Bodhi what he wanted to do. His response was simple. “I want to go on the Boardwalk Train and ride rides at the Boardwalk.” You got it! That sounds fun for me too!! The Boardwalk Train ride is truly majestic. The diesel powered engine starts in an ancient redwood forest. It passes through a tunnel, goes over a bridge, cruises on downtown city streets, and rolls alongside the Pacific ocean to the Santa Cruz Boardwalk. Bodhi wanted to invite his grandpa and his best friend Giacomo. Although grandpa couldn’t make it, Giacomo was all too excited to join. He also said he wanted to decorate the house with balloons and our traditional happy birthday sign. So, we did that too. And, of course , he wanted some kind of cake or cupcake with candles. Sure. Why not. Sooner or later, Bodhi will realize that half birthdays aren’t really a thing. Or, maybe he won’t. Whose to say that you shouldn’t be celebrated just for being you twice a year. Or five times a year. Or every day of your life. We are all special and deserve to be celebrated far more than we allow. When was the last time you truly celebrated yourself?

Do you celebrate your half birthday?

Last year, I casually mentioned to Bodhi that it was his half birthday.

He became extremely excited and wanted to plan a celebration.

In his mind, Bodhi was getting:

Gifts.
Decorations.
A special event.
Candles, cake, and yummies.

He wanted the works.

However, we didn’t quite realize the extent of what he expected … until he later shared his disappointment with the lack of fanfare.

This year, we decided to have a proper celebration and asked Bodhi what he wanted to do.

His response was simple.

“I want to go on the Boardwalk Train and ride rides at the Boardwalk.”

You got it!

That sounds fun for me too!!

Last night I wept tears of gratitude as I lay in bed with Bodhi and Luna, each of them asleep - curled up in my arms. Every cell in my body was happy. It is such a beautiful gift to allow ourselves to feel the full magnitude of gratitude. It is a complete body and extra sensory experience. True gratitude, much like true love, is the most powerful energy and vibration in the universe. This morning, my gratitude fest continued when Bodhi asked me to put on my matching dinosaur shirt. The backstory is that my shirt was actually my father’s … and Bodhi’s shirt was mine when I was a kid. My dad‘s shirt is a bit small on me and is rather uncomfortable. Yet, wearing it brings me such immense joy, love, gratitude, and, yes… a little bit of sadness. The sadness comes from the fact that it’s not my dad wearing it with us. Daniel Goodman has been departed from this earthly realm for 14 years now. I still miss him every day.  The photos below are of me and Bodhi doing a dinosaur impression. It was his idea. I just wanted a cute pic of us smiling with our shirts. Meanwhile, Luna (who was playing on the other side of the deck) immediately ran over and wanted to be involved. Now, I’m taking the kids to a birthday party. All while Carrie is having 24 hours to herself. Well, technically, she is off camping with our dear friend Lauren. Thank you thank you thank you for all of it. I’ll end with a simple question … What are you most grateful for today? Would love to hear your share 👇👇

Travel Journal 📔 Day 1 highlights from Goodman Family Vacation 2021. After an early morning leaving Santa Cruz, we drove all the way to Yosemite National Park only to find out that you needed reservations to get in. Oops. Even though we didn’t get in, it was a beautiful drive filled with peace and harmony for all those inside the car. Plus, our actual destination was just 45 minutes from Yosemite … so we didn’t really go that far out of the way. Tonite, we sleep in a retro RV complete with a 1950s kitchenette that transforms into a second queen bed. It’s pretty much the coolest place I’ve ever stayed. Or, at least, the most unique. Tomorrow morning is another early morning. Along with our next-door neighbors and their similarly aged kids, we are going on our family’s first backpacking camping adventure. Full disclosure, it’s my first one as well. Despite a decade of backpacking around the world, there was always either a bed to sleep in or someone to help carry our stuff. Tomorrow, I am the Sherpa. All our food, gear, clothes, and everything else the family will need for three days will go on my back for two round trips from the car to the campsite. Roughly 10 miles total. In 100° heat. I am both terrified and extremely excited. What’s also exciting is that there will be no Internet. A true “off the grid adventure.” If there were more room in my pack, I would take my DSLR and not even need my phone for a camera. Maybe I just won’t even take any pictures. We shall see how it goes. Either way, see you on the flipside. Aka, Sunday.

Travel Journal 📔 Day 1 highlights from Goodman Family Vacation 2021.

After an early morning leaving Santa Cruz, we drove all the way to Yosemite National Park only to find out that you needed reservations to get in. Oops.

Even though we didn’t get in, it was a beautiful drive filled with peace and harmony for all those inside the car.

Plus, our actual destination was just 45 minutes from Yosemite … so we didn’t really go that far out of the way.

Tonite, we sleep in a retro RV complete with a 1950s kitchenette that transforms into a second queen bed.

It’s pretty much the coolest place I’ve ever stayed.

Or, at least, the most unique.

Tomorrow morning is another early morning.

Along with our next-door neighbors and their similarly aged kids, we are going on our family’s first backpacking camping adventure.

Full disclosure, it’s my first one as well.

Despite a decade of backpacking around the world, there was always either a bed to sleep in or someone to help carry our stuff.

Tomorrow, I am the Sherpa.

All our food, gear, clothes, and everything else the family will need for three days will go on my back for two round trips from the car to the campsite.

Roughly 10 miles total.

In 100° heat.

I am both terrified and extremely excited.

What’s also exciting is that there will be no Internet.

A true “off the grid adventure.”

If there were more room in my pack, I would take my DSLR and not even need my phone for a camera.

Maybe I just won’t even take any pictures.

We shall see how it goes.

Either way, see you on the flipside.
