I WON!!!!!

Ok, I didn’t win the lottery but I did win an autographed copy of “The Modern Mom’s Guide to Dads” by Hogan Hilling and Jayne Rutherford.  I must say that I can’t wait to check out this book.  I love reading books on being a parent and am really looking forward to reading this one.  I will post a review and picture when I get it in!!!

On another note I plan on in the near future to begin doing video blogs.  I think it would add a little sweetness to my blogs!!  I must confess that it is 11:07 pm and I am spent!!!  Time for bed!!  Until next time.

Much love,

Shawn

The Evolution of Dad

A few weeks ago I posted the trailer for the documentary “The Evolution of Dad.”  Well, since then I have gotten the opportunity to check out the film before the official release date and I must say……….THIS IS A GREAT FILM!!!  I HIGHLY recommend it!!  Here’s the trailer I posted:

This film is going to revolutionize the role of Fatherhood in this country and I am so glad I have gotten the chance to know some of those that have made this film possible!!!  Because of that, I have gotten the opportunity to share will all my readers a little gift from Dana and everyone at The Evolution of Dad.  If you know a great Dad that exemplifies the role of Fatherhood, then check out this this link as a gift from The Evolution of Dad staff and The Father’s Perspective. Remember, Father’s Day is coming and this would be a great addition to a gift letting the Father in your life how much he means to you!!! Until next time.

Cool Dad Gift of the Day

The blade flashes. The violins stab out freaky chords. The shower curtain is pulled off its rings – one by one. Chocolate syrup gets washed down the drain. And then Norman Bates needs to take a shower himself (filming a Hitchcock film is hard work, you know). Lucky for him, stashed away with his knife and wig, he has a bag of Blood Bath Shower Gel. And that means he’ll not only get clean, but he’ll have fun doing it.
Blood Bath Shower Gel

Blood Bath Shower Gel the perfect edition to your gory bathroom. It smells like cherry, cleans ya real good, feels and looks like extra thick blood, and has a rope to hang it from any nook or cranny of your shower. And hang it you will, because then the IV-styled blood bag will really show off its good looks. This crimson cleanser goes great with your Horror Movie Shower Curtain & Bath Mat (see below)! Blood Bath Shower Gel – it murders grime.

Blood Bath Shower Gel

* Great for scrubbing up after all sort of “activities.”
* Cherry-scented and stuffed into a IV-styled, blood bag.
* Norman Bates approved.
* Net Wt. 400ml
* Dimensions: approx. 1.75″ x 4.25″ x 7″

Buy it here. I WILL be getting this!!! Until next time.

Much love,
Shawn

Need Sleep?

Being a Dad often means that we are spending a lot of time working to provide for our families and then coming home to be with the very family we are working so hard to take care of.  Because of this we often have long days and late nights.  With that being the case many of us never really get the rest we need to properly function at the top of our game, we may eat good, go to the gym, etc. but many of us rarely get the kind of sleep and rest that we really need to renew ourselves, not only for our own well being, but also for the sake of our families.

Proper rest is a MAJOR need in our country today, especially for men.  I believe that many of our personal issues as men, like anger, are a direct result of our lack of rest.  With that being the case I wanted to share with all my great readers a product I have come across that is absolutely revolutionizing my ability to rest.  I came across a company called Enlyten which is a health and wellness company that specializes in using a strip technology to deliver their products directly into the blood stream by having their products dissolve in your mouth.  I must say that I LOVE this company and their products!!  However, the one product that I want you to really check out is called Melatonin.

Melatonin is a naturally occurring hormone that works in the brain to help the body regulate the natural cycle of sleeping and waking.  Although melatonin is naturally occurring in the brain, production is inhibited by light and permitted by darkness.  Supplementation allows for the brain to regulate itself and thus, provides natural relief from symptoms of fatigue, exhaustion, and little sleep.  Studies have shown that melatonin works to stimulate both the immune and endocrine systems.  Melatonin is a hormone produced in the pineal gland, a small gland in the brain that helps regulate sleep and wake cycles.

The above picture is what Enlyten’s Melatonin looks like and the box that it comes in.  It is both easy to use and easy to carry with you!!  (Of course the above picture is not actual size.  In case you were wondering.)  I would love to have all the great Dad’s that read this blog to give Enlyten and Melatonin a try.  The cost is $5 which will give you 12 melatonin strips or almost 2 weeks of dosage.  To order you can click here, which will take you directly to the Enlyten website and to the Melatonin product order page, At checkout if you enter the promo code:  shawnwilson You will get a 10% discount.

I would love to hear success stories from this great product!!  If you try it, let me know because I would like to follow along with you in your journey to a little better rest for you and your family!!  I know for me this product has been a blessing that I have needed for a LONG time.  I am now getting the rest I need without waking up feeling like I haven’t slept or gotten into the REM sleep that is needed for true rest during sleep.  I look forward to hearing the good reports that come from this great product and please feel free to contact me is you have any questions or concerns.  Until next time.

Much love,

Shawn

Championship Fathering

Being a Father in today’s culture is not easy.  However, Carey Casey and the National Center for Fathering has made being a Father just a little easier with the book, Championship Fathering.  I recently got to meet and hear Rev. Casey at the Louisiana Governor’s Prayer Breakfast and I must say that not only does this man have a passion for serving Father’s, he has a passion for raising up the next generation of Father’s.

I am just a few pages into this great book and I must say that it has already rocked my world.  If you are looking for a good field guide for being a Father, this is it!!  I highly recommend getting this book and applying the principles it teaches to you role as a Father.  You won’t be sorry.  Until next time.

Much love,

Shawn

Dad Gift of the Day

Just in case you weren’t sure…

Just in case you were having trouble, we have a simple system to keep track of your offspring. It doesn’t take a sophisticated version control system like CVS or Subversion to know who is the child and who is the parent, but our simple v1.0 and v2.0 t-shirts should help.

Be sure to get our v2.0 shirt too!

100% cotton heavyweight t-shirt in Blue Dusk. “v1.0″ printed on the front in black, white, and red. The design is the same as on our “Version 2.0” shirt, but a little larger.

If you want to buy these cool shirts, click here.

Until next time.

Much love,
Shawn
