Drawing lines in the sand

There is a battle and balance between needs and wants that rages on in our minds and emotions.  In our minds we can justify and rationalize actions as well as something we consider a need, something we cannot be without.  In conversations with other ABDLs I have listened to many speak of necessity. “I need” … Continue reading Drawing lines in the sand

70-20-10 | A pattern for self acceptance and growth

Who reads the Foreword to a book?  Not me, at least almost never.  I love to delve into Professional Development and Organizational Excellence.  There is something about learning a new concept, and then helping others put it into actions that keeps me coming back for more.  Because of that I found myself recently reading a … Continue reading 70-20-10 | A pattern for self acceptance and growth

Hiding in plain sight

While watching the season finale to Community I was reminded that the Dean of the school presents throughout the episode wearing nothing but a diaper.  During the course of the show he wears a myriad of costumes and outfits as he announces all sorts of news to the study group, and this was either his … Continue reading Hiding in plain sight

Every diaper is different

Three different runs, with three different coaches, that all brought a similar message back to me. I had been really struggling with myself, and many of the pressures and stresses that surrounded me.  Here, in the quiet and dark I found the voices of a pre-recorded, guided run telling me a similar message (perhaps that … Continue reading Every diaper is different

Parents looking for answers – You’re Not Alone – Chapter 12

I didn't write near as many notes for this chapter as I read it as many of the others in this book.  For me, I struggled with what perspective and purpose I would take in sharing with those who end up reading.  I, like almost everyone else who will read this, was at one point … Continue reading Parents looking for answers – You’re Not Alone – Chapter 12

Her Big Baby, and the power of incremental acceptance

One of the most commonly asked questions I get from my blog posts are about the level of acceptance and interaction that my wife has with me wearing diapers.  I think the dream or ideal situation for each ABDL is different, and I think it is impossible to make a list because it will be … Continue reading Her Big Baby, and the power of incremental acceptance

Her Diaper Wearing Husband

During a recent conversation with my wife about a variety of things going on in our lives we pivoted to diapers. I cannot recall why as we had been focusing on things that she is currently carrying as mother, wife, and professional. A struggle of mine that has been decades long has been self worth. … Continue reading Her Diaper Wearing Husband

Recognizing baby steps

Baby steps are foundational to us making lasting changes in our lives.  These steps are in no way limited to only the journey of an ABDL.  In a discussion with my wife this week we talked about the importance of implementing small, smart changes in our lives that can build to lasting changes.   All too … Continue reading Recognizing baby steps

The difference between being accepting and acceptance

I often use the metaphor of a ”bank of trust” in regards to relationships.  My wife and I work together daily to deposit trust and good experiences into a metaphorical bank.  These deposits strengthen our relationship together and allow us to have our moments.  When one of us is struggling in one form or another … Continue reading The difference between being accepting and acceptance
