If there is one thing that goes hand in hand with raising three sons, aside from the dire need for soap and water, is balls. My oldest son, Tater, showed the most basic of gender differences the first time he went to the hardware store with me. He was in awe! His little face just beamed, as if to say, I have found what I love!

It seems safe to say that most of us, at point or another, have been heavier than we wanted to be.

Happy New Year!!!
Common Post-Holiday Question #1: Did you have a good New Year?

I think he was trying to press “rewind” for the P90X toll-free number. Don’t feel sorry for him. He wouldn’t have made it past week 3. Yup, my “Mr. Miyagi” karate chop, not only ended any chance of him bulking up, but pretty much did him in.
