This cartoon was done in Adobe Photoshop.
I was thinking how confusing it can get when kids have step parents and it’s school registration time. Which name goes where? And who can pick up the child? Somebody help. I need an organizational chart.

Illustration Friday: Backward, originally uploaded by speartoons.
It’s been snowing in my hometown. Looks like most of the northern United States has put of with this weather.
I miss the days I went sledding with my son. Now, he is taller than me. Getting on the sled just isn’t as easy as it used to be!

Missing
I was thinking more about the term, “missing.” It reminded me how easy it is for guys to zone out of their family life.
I know I have to watch it and I pray I never get to the point where my kids and wife resent my career or my illustrations because they took the place of our relationship.
This week’s theme for Illustration Friday is “Fortune.”
When I thought of the word, fortune, two things came to mind; children are more valuable than any amount of cash and the time we spend with them is priceless.
Some of the best times I’ve had with my kids were reading to them. It was a thrill to see how they would react to a new book. Now, when they wanted to read the same book for the fiftieth time, well, that got a little old!
Even if they wanted the same book, there was something special about reading to my kids. It’s something nobody can get from watching television.
Today, when I see my kids reading to themselves, I think about the times before they could read and how much they have changed. Kids are a blessing… and they’re worth a fortune!
Cartoon of puzzled family at Easter egg hunt. Dad says, “Maybe I should have dyed the Easter eggs a different color
As cold as things are in Indiana, I’m wondering if Easter eggs wouldn’t show up if we just stuck to white? I wasn’t this cold as Christmas time. I’ve heard of a three dog night. This is a cat-in-the-lap sort of day. Across the country, this will be the first season of Easter egg hunts that will involve mittens, snowmen and hot chocolate.
Enjoy!
