My son makes me proud!












So, I think every guy is allowed to have his man-crushes. In case any of you are concerned in the wake of Proposition 8, I think it behooves me to explain that a man-crush does not imply any sexual attraction, just a masculine appreciation/respect. For those who know me well, you know that arguably my 2 biggest man-crushes are Jack Bauer (we unofficially named our kid after him after all) and Portland Trailblazer and world-great Arvydas Sabonis.
Well, last Christmas Kizzie gave me one of these beauties which proudly sits on my desk at work. So, the other day, Kizzie, Avery, and Jack came to visit me at work. Avery walked into my office and walked up to my desk and said "Hey Daddy, it's Babonis!" Keep in mind that this was done without any coaching of any type on my part. I have probably identified the bobble head in the past, but not this day. It was a proud moment for me though. How many 2 year olds (or adults for that matter) do you know who could identify Arvydas Sabonis? That's right... probably none. Yet another sign that my boy=awesome.

You're so gay. You're error lies in calling it a man crush. But I gotta admit, Jack Bauer is the ultimate stud.

PS- I'm seeing how far I can push before being blocked from your blog. Happy Thanksgiving.
