Steve Miller Living

For our whole relationship, Tim and I have loved Steve Miller Band, and we have always connected with a certain song as well.
"True Fine Love."

Seems the lyrics have always rung true.


"We'll have a boy for you,
We'll have a girl for me.
Come on babe, let's raise a family."


Yep, anyone who knows me knows Dev is my boy, and Gwynn is, in so many ways, Tim's Mini Me.

Except when it comes to a day like today. When Tim and Dev spend an ENTIRE day outside…hunting, and planting, and yarding. And Gwynn and I spend an ENTIRE day inside, cleaning, and baking, and cooking, while watching ever too much of a series TV show on DVD.

Still, even with that much "together time" going on, on the two opposite ends of the gender norm spectrum, what it really comes down to is family. Raising a family. Growing people. Showing them what it is we each know, in order to help them grow.

It disgusts me sometimes that what we do for a profession is what we do every day…day in, and day out. But none the less it is, and was, and ever shall be.

He is me, and also him.
She is him, and also me.

Well, until, on a day OFF, she MUST fit in her run, and I choose to skip yoga.

Yeah, still got some growing to do I guess.
