Father of 7 girls, artist, French-American, pianist, baker, book lover, I want to change the world: the way I live, my relationships at home, and beyond.
@LittleBrownYR @barbrosenstock Any chance I could get permission to read The Mysterious Benedict Society to my online followers? Just trying to offer support to parents and children in this COVID-19 mess.
What happens when you get to soccer practice an hour early? You get a daddy-daughter date, that’s what! We found a tiny taco truck a few blocks away and the cleaners next door was kind enough to let Smunchie (9) use… https://t.co/MAfrfe0vFZ
I love this moment. Lucky, 22 months young, was ready to go down the big slide. And so her mom and 2 sisters come rushing in to make sure she’s safe.

9 days ago was Ophélia’s sending off party. It was supposed to be hot dogs and s’mores in our backyard fire pit. But about an hour before it was supposed to begin, a massive fire broke out about 2-3 blocks away from… https://t.co/oeQy7Ypr4d
What a treat to get to meet Crystal Dunn today after the @thornsfc and thenccourage soccer game!

@crysdunn_19 ~ you are such an inspiration to my girls. Watching you play soccer is beautiful. Brilliant. Powerful.… https://t.co/JIB0Goa1Wj
I love everything about this. ❤️ Toddler, sister, mommy. Wonder Woman. And a walk around the block. 🥰

More pics from our walk at Willamette Falls a few days ago. We had a surprise Tow-Mater sighting, stumbled on a plaque on the side of a rock memorializing the explosion of a steamboat,… https://t.co/ZBOUZ3k7t8
Happy birthday (the day after) to one of the most talented, intelligent, creative, compassionate, people I know. Lavinia, I’m so glad you joined our family 18 years ago.

It was a beautiful day to visit Willamette Falls yesterday. First hike of the year. It was an easy one, and a surprising one. When I think falls I think of nature hikes and dirt paths.… https://t.co/KPWC06QBoa
Jessica got creative yesterday and set Lucky up with an activity to keep her busy while we worked. A colander and pipe cleaners. An empty container with fuzzy balls. And try to not watch… https://t.co/BDXIfM5FqT
I’m so glad I can still turn her frown upside down. Sugarbaby (6) wasn’t having the whole school thing yesterday morning. And though these pics look like she changed her mind about that,… https://t.co/nvpCj3AGeP
Goofy selfies - it’s a thing for Lavinia and me when we hang out. Last night at @artistsrep was one of those times. Just the two of us, out to see a play. I loved hanging out with her, and… https://t.co/T48ymiV9K1
Children are people.
But often, in our everyday challenges and emotions and passions and pursuits and relationships, children are seen and treated more like problems, possessions, wild… https://t.co/hEUtPbsoWA
So proud of this young woman. Naturally introverted and not one to put herself out there, she agreed to participate in NWCT’s season announcement party - which meant she had several songs… https://t.co/y2WfHMqln2
Our sweet baby didn’t see it coming - sleep was just waiting for her to finish her snack before pouncing on her. That was rather considerate, i think. 16 months old, and our little Lucky… https://t.co/cSLqT7WtsB
Getting artistic at our park. Squigglebug (11) needed some time to kick a soccer ball (I helped) and create something. It’s tough being 11. ❤️
