My Empty-Nest Cross-Country Road-Trip to College with Ford
I woke my son up to show him the just-arrived 2013 Ford Flex we got for our trip!
I’m about to embark on a road trip. Not just any road trip but one with my first-born son across America from Los Angeles to Boston to begin college. Not just any road trip, but also a huge journey from childhood to adulthood for him, and from a clingy loving dad to empty nester for me. Yes, I will have my other son at home, but the first one to leave is big. Our home will not be the same and our family dynamics will not be the same. Ford has generously loaned us a fully loaded brand-new 2013 Ford Flex for the drive. We are going in style!

We Told the TRUTH at #DadChat
Do you tell the truth to your kids? What about your spouse? What about other couples when you hang out? The truth is NOT a simple thing, though we all think it is. Do we tell our kids that Santa is not real? Do we tell our spouse they look lousy today? See? That’s what we discussed – telling the truth – at #DadChat Thursday, August 16. Read the transcript, if you DARE!
