Sculpting our best selves

There are moments that exist within the walls of our mind where we struggle, battle, converse, and reconcile who we are with ourselves.  These can be the most gratifying or painful conversations that we ever have.  All too often we avoid these conversations because they are painful.  Growth, change, and improvement is painful.  Like most … Continue reading Sculpting our best selves

Public padding in fresh powder

We decided to take the entire family up on the mountain to go skiing.  It was the first time that my children had been on skis.  I decided I would pad up for the trip since there would be plenty of other crinkling going on. I chose to wear an ABU Bunny Hop (four-tape for … Continue reading Public padding in fresh powder

When conversations take hours

When talking to my spouse recently she commented how there are times when I need to talk for hours in order to get through something.  These conversations are often diaper-related recently, and there are times when I am verbalizing thoughts and emotions for the first time.  In these moments I am learning how I feel … Continue reading When conversations take hours

What the GEMBA?! – Problem Solving – Session 2

How we view problems, and then how we choose to attack them speaks volumes about who we are.  Thomas Edison is attributed with saying, “I didn’t fail.  I just found 2,000 ways not to make a lightbulb.  I only needed to find one way to make it work.” When we are able to recognize problems … Continue reading What the GEMBA?! – Problem Solving – Session 2

Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

A book from my childhood.  I had a day like that recently.  It didn’t start out that way, and it helped me remember that every day isn’t all cupcakes.  I’ve begun wearing onesies a little more often.  Not every time, but I rather enjoy how they “feel” when I have one on.  It extends the … Continue reading Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day

Feeling sick brings out the little in me

I’ve been noticing in the past few months that when I don’t feel physically good that I turn to diapers as part of my recovery methods.  I have suffered from migraines my entire life, and lately they have been bad.  I wake up with them, so it is hard to determine a trigger.  I have … Continue reading Feeling sick brings out the little in me

The strength of a spouse

“This isn’t going away, is it?”  What a powerful question, and a bit of insight into the mind of my wife.  I’m sure the last year hasn’t been easy.  My wife and I picked up a conversation about diapers that wasn’t planned, and we covered a lot of topics and emotions.  It was the best … Continue reading The strength of a spouse

A Friend’s Voice – The road to where we want to be

Recently on our Discord Server (message me if you’d like an invite) someone who goes by the name sirdinosaur1104 posed the question about goals regarding our significant others.  While people chimed in I saw pieces of their answers in my own life.  I think there are “mile markers” or significant milestones along the road that … Continue reading A Friend’s Voice – The road to where we want to be

Not all pacifiers are pacis

We all have that thing that takes us to a place of peace.  For some of us it is an experience or activity.  For some of us it is an object.  What is your weighted blanket, diaper, or pacifier?  Through a little series of experiences I think I’m seeing something that provides that to my … Continue reading Not all pacifiers are pacis
