Daddy's Tiny Cars: Explained


Daddy's Tiny Cars

Every week I will add a single toy diecast vehicle, a playful marker of the passing days. These toys are off limits to my kids, but not in a cruel, taunting way. Instead, each one is a mini-celebration of self, and my kids share in my enthusiasm of this odd, simple pleasure, often commenting on the week's selection. While life can be difficult, this blog is a celebration of joy, wonder and humor, and if tough times and worries occasionally peek through as subtext, so hopefully does my commitment to becoming a better person each day. Each numbered week a car and every one of them a symbol to appreciate and laugh -- and if we can do that, we're doing okay.

  1. I am here because of your etsy shop :) I was interested because my husband LOVES cars! He has some matchbox cars but we can't find them :( I read the story and I laughed so hard...I passed some gas :) thank God my husband was sleeping for that! But what I really loved was your wanting to be a better person,to laugh and to appreciate everything big and small. It's nice to know there are others out there.
    Thank you for the story and thank you for the humor
