Engineer. Dad. Book lover. Lost my old account to the void-starting fresh. Opinions are my own unless my kid disagrees.

@CheryJohnson_ Adorable.

I told my kid I used to draw spaceships when I was his age
He said “that’s why you’re an architect, right?”
Now I’m weirdly emotional

[John McMillian @john_mcmilly]

@CheryJohnson_ My son said the same thing the other night
We were reading and he goes, “Why can’t I be in the book?”
Been thinking about that ever since
Might have to make it happen

[John McMillian @john_mcmilly]

My son drew a “blueprint” for his dream treehouse
It has a candy machine, 3 bedrooms, and a trapdoor for “bad vibes”
Honestly? Better than most client briefs I’ve seen

[John McMillian @john_mcmilly]

@CheryJohnson_ That’s exactly what I was thinking. some of these personalized books are cute but like...$60 for a generic name drop and a haircut that doesn’t even match?
I want something that actually feels like Jason, not like I clicked “boy” and hoped for the best, you know?

[John McMillian @john_mcmilly]

Jason’s birthday’s coming up and I’m out of ideas
Trying to find something that actually means something-maybe a book?
If you’ve ever found a gift that made your kid light up, I’m all ears.

My kid asked me a question tonight and I had no idea what the answer was.
Felt bad for a second.
Then I remembered it’s not about knowing everything.
Just being there when they ask.

Built a mini-me and my little man out of LEGOs this weekend. 10/10 bonding activity, highly recommend. He says we’re 'construction heroes' now 😂👷‍♂️ #BoyDad #MakingMemories #BuildingMemories #BigImaginations #WeekendVibes
