Overview

I'm a full-time dad and I write things. In 2021, I wrote a poem for my wife every single day. What you're holding isn't just a collection of these poems, but a window into our lives as we juggled jobs, a child with special needs, an aging parent, and three beloved household pets, all living under one roof in a pandemic-infused powder keg of emotion, fear, and joy.

Description

In 2021, I wrote something for my wife, every single day. What started as a simple New Year's resolution to rekindle our romance ended up as a chronicle of a couple surviving pandemic, loss, and the sandwich-generation rollercoaster of caring for both a special-needs child and live-in elderly parent. This book is the result. The child is still happy, healthy, and wonderful. The elderly parent no longer lives with us, but we see her all the time as she lives out her final chapters. And the wife and I are still grateful to be taking life day by day.
