My Diabetes Mine guest post

A big thank you to Mike Hoskins and Diabetes Mine for featuring me today on the site for Father's Day! In addition to some nice words from Mike about my book you'll find a guest post from me titled, "The Outcome Is Not Important" and a giveaway.

I hope you get a chance to surf over and check it out... Diabetes Mine is one of the great sites and Mike's writing is top shelf - spend some time there (after you read my bit).

Pictures from my Katie Couric Interview

Hey guys!

I'm back from New York City with some pictures from the day to share. Miss Katie Couric was absolutely delightful and I think I gave her a fun and interesting look into my life as a stay-at-home dad. Her producer tells me that the interview will run the week of June 10th on Katie's Yahoo show, 'Katie Takes'. I'll be sure to share video and links as soon as they are available.

Get this... Katie told me after the interview ended that she thought I would be great for her television show! Fingers crossed that something comes of it. What an amazing and exciting day, I can't imagine that I'll ever forget it.

These pictures and more can also be found in my Visual Record. I'm expecting a few more shots to arrive by email, I'll add them as soon as they arrive.

My Newspaper Interview with the Deseret News

The Deseret News is a well respected, national publication and I am very excited to be a part of their piece, 'More dads staying home with the kids while mom works'...

Scott Benner told his wife she should quit working and stay home with their new baby. But she had the better career path. So he stayed home and 13 years later, he's practically a pioneer in a trend that keeps growing: The stay-at-home dad. 

I hope that you have a few minutes to hop over to their site and read the interview by Lois Collins. Sharing via the newspaper's website is greatly appreciated.

Oklahoma Tornado

Paul Hellstern - Oklahoma APLast night this photo of two teachers leading children to safety brought tears to my eyes and sent me racing to my computer to make a donation to the American Red Cross and the Salvation Army.
