Jude is thirteen
Jude turned 13 today. I recorded the video below when he was three. Ten years ago. Ten years. Time is weird.
When Bre was pregnant with Jude, I vividly remember daydreaming about what being a Dad would be like, wondering what Jude would look like, what his voice would sound like. All the things. I can say with complete conviction that this kid is everything I ever dreamed of and more.
My responsibility as his father is to raise him to be a God-fearing, courageous, kind, loving, humble young man. I don’t take that responsibility lightly, and I’m proud to report that the trajectory is good.
I’ve got five more years with him under my roof, and I plan on making each one count.
Side note: when Jude was born, I was much less busy. So, naturally, I built him his own website and carefully crafted films to commemorate important milestones 🤷🏻♂️

This post might look like it’s about a toddler spa day—but it’s really about permission. Permission to slow down. To stop earning. To remember that being still doesn’t mean falling behind.
Thirteen hit different this week. The trip was fun, but the real adventure? Watching her become exactly who she was made to be.
Reasonableness feels safe, sensible, and even wise. But if we’re not careful—it’ll quietly squeeze the life out of the things that make life meaningful: creativity, passion, and purpose.

In 2006 I found myself recording my first album in Brooklyn, New York and simultaneously preparing to perform live on MTV in Times Square for New Years. It was wild.
