Kids & Music: Jonah Rocks

Today I’m back at it with my contribution to the latest Dad-Blogs Daddy Yak episode.  In the fourth installment of this series we were to discuss our opinions on infants and toddlers in public.

Name Your Guilty Pleasure

This post was originally appeared on my music column ‘The Crossroads’ over at Dad-Blogs.com on June 2, 2009. You know you have one. Somewhere, deep down it haunts you, invades your soul. You don’t want anyone to know your dirty little secret. Suppressing it only works for so long until you can’t help but let [...]
