How to give your wife a happy birthday

Cartoon of a sick woman asking a man to sign a contract

Cartoon of an ill woman with a contract. She says to a man, “Please sign this agreement that you will never again bake me a birthday cake.”

Maybe it’s the thought that counts, but if you know you’re a lousy baker, let the professionals do the work. After all, you will need to eat the cake too!

Get in line, Bully

Cartoon of a boy being bullied

Cartoon of a boy and a bully. The boy says, “You want to bully me too? Get in line! I have three other bullies before you.”

As a child, I learned bullies aren’t creative. If one discovers you’re ripe for being picked on, others will catch on. Even in a small town with a small school, this became obvious.

My coping skill was to draw a cartoon that would amuse a bully. It usually worked, and sometimes made a friend. Unfortunately, I also learned you should never draw an unflattering cartoon of the bully you’re drawing a cartoon for. That was my first lesson in marketing.

I drew this for K! Magazine.

Broken Family

cartoon of a boy saying he came from a broken family

 

Cartoon of two boys walking. One says, “I come from a broken family. Dad broke it and Mom left it that way.”

Yes, I hate divorce. Of course, I’ve never met anyone who likes it. This was a hard topic to deal with. But one that needs to be discussed with compassion and empathy, especially in the church.

I drew this cartoon for K! Magazine.
