A man & his Mother Letters

by Matt MooneyApril 23, 2012

I am a father.  A man.  Who went fishing this last weekend in fact.  I like meat (although salads more, but also meat).

With that backdrop of secure man-ness, I wanted to recommend a book that my friends recently put out.  These are not digital, pretend friends.  These guys are really my friends.  I remember a phone conversation with Seth when he had no idea what to do with this idea for a gift for his wife, Amber.  I am glad he figured it out.  Parenting is tough.  If you find something that encourages you in that journey along the way…spread it.

Men, it would make a great gift for your wife and then you can sneak glances at it when she’s not around.  For public reading, you may want to slide the Ipad into a Sports Illustrated or Grilling Monthly or something testosterone-y like that.

Check it out.  Good people.  Great project.

    Wow, thanks man.

    And remember when you said, “why don’t you start a blog.”? And I said, “huh?” And you said, “a blog… everybody’s doing it!” That’s what started this whole mess.

    You and Ginny are fine folks. Fine folks, indeed. We’re lucky to call you friends in the tangible, real world.

    And I like meat too… and historically wearing you out in basketball.

    I remember most of that; I like you. …except I remember waxing you and your buffs back in the day. Fort Smith Lives!
