I first learned about Dave when I stumbled on his blog, Kermit the Blog two or three years ago. (Baby brain makes the memory a little shaky, eh?) He had a link to another one of his blogs, Daddy Daze, that I didn't really start religiously reading until after my friend told us she was pregnant, about 18 months ago. Dave has some great content on Daddy Daze, content I've found infinitely more relevant since I became pregnant and little Henry arrived. Well, Dave recently announced that his employer is closing shop next year. And after searching for gainful employment, Dave came to the realization that this event is presenting him with a unique opportunity. To write. Full-time. I have to support that. Because it takes an inordinate amount of courage to chase your dream when you've got a wife and two kids and there are no guarantees. So, if there is anyone out there who is needing a last-minute gift idea for me, I ask you to donate to Dave instead.

Holy cow, thank you! I appreciate this tremendously.
When making this decision, I remembered a quote that is very dear to me:
"You've got to jump off cliffs all the time and build your wings on the way down."
That's exactly what I'm doing. Thanks for the support.
