Samantha got her yellow belt today.

Another Easter photo of Samantha. She wore this beautiful dress and hat to church. I’m sure my Grandaddy was rolling in his grave because I wore jeans. (Don’t judge me!)

Samantha told her Mom that “I want to put my hand over my heart and look thoughtful”, so, that’s the “spontaneous” moment you are seeing here.

Good morning from the Grayson, Georgia Easter Egg Hunt Extravaganza! We are sitting in our car because it’s raining.

Sometimes, Samantha just has to make silly faces for MeMaw.

Samantha getting her picture taken by her Mom at dance this morning.

A picture capturing my favorite moment of every single day.

Tonight, Samantha decided that she’s a cat.

Ice cream sundae for Samantha!!!

Dinner!!!

Left to right, my daughter, my niece, my friend’s kid.

Samantha gets to visit the aquarium and I’m stuck in my home office working.

My wife says it’s very crowded so I kind of feel like I’m winning.

I think that maybe, just maybe, Sam is only pretending to smile for this picture.

The only evidence I have that Samantha went to the moon.

Samantha sleeps weird.

Am I the only one who refuses to do business again with anyone who spams my mailbox with April Fools Day jokes?

Samantha loves the Space and Rocket Center in Huntsville.

Why can’t I sleep like this in the car on a long trip?

Of all the collages Nicole has made of Samantha, and there have been a lot, this will always be my favorite.

Another night, another story.

Samantha was ready for opening day.

Nearly 18 years old and just as sweet as the day we got her.l

I started using VS Code a few months ago for coding, and despite it not being a native Mac app, I found myself loving it. It was so fast, smooth and powerful. And then, yesterday, despite no update and no extensions, the app started stuttering on every scroll and edit.

Samantha and her beautiful work of art.

A fake smile from Samantha?
