    My (first?) book now available

    Hey, Everyone!

    I just wanted to share that I've completed my first book, entitled "Taking Care of Lil' Man", and it's available through Amazon.

    It's a collection of anecdotes from Jess and my first month as foster parents.

    If you know of anyone who might be interested, please feel free to spread the word!

    Greatly appreciated!

    I really can't wait to have the time to read this. I didn't even know you guys were foster parents. My life with my own two toddlers is taking up literally every minute.

    For those who don't know this poster/author, I can guarantee you this book will be worth the time

    Thanks, Tralee! It may have a couple heartfelt moments in there, but for the mostpart, it's the funnier side of fostering.

    Thanks, Kid! Honestly, you could probably read through the entire book in under five minutes. But, those five minutes would be really enjoyable.

    OK, Serious question, I am a founding member (A great friend and I started it several years ago) of a book club at Wilm. Country Club, I intend to read your book and what we like, more than anything, is to read local authors and if we decide to use the book, have them visit with us for a Book Club Meeting. It's only one hour, from 4- 5 on the first Tuesday of each month. IF, after I read the book and put it to the group and they agree, would you be able to meet with us some month in the future to discuss the book with us? One book we read was, "The Art of Racing in the Rain" and loved it so much that we actually had a Skyp meeting with Garth Brooks, the author. We all loved talking to him and if we could get a local author, we would be thrilled. So, think about it, we are already scheduled through May or June of this year, but IF I like the book and think it would make a nice selection for our group, and we are VERY all over the place in interests, do you think you would be interested in visiting with us? I sincerely hope we can work something out. Local authors are hard to find and Maria De Los Santos never responded to any of our letters. Looking forward to reading the book! Let me know if you would be interested. Personally, the premis of the book sounds wonderful. Something I would love to read and to raise awareness of the Foster Parent Program. Thanks. PM me if you are interested.

    Congrats Grimace. I know you and your wife have been through a lot and I just wanted to tell you how happy I am for you on this book. You are both doing such a great job and making a positive impact on the kids you bring into your home and love. I will really try to make time to buy and read the book. Judging from some of your past projects I'm sure it will be quite funny!
    You can only make a mistake once. After that it's a choice.
