I look a little sleepy (my fault), but I really like this photo by Van Courier photographer @dtoulgoet — the lighting in particular. I really don’t have many photos of me working, so it’s nice to have one more!

This was about the age my kids were when I came up with the idea for Great Job, Dad!, and the book tries to capture the trials and tribulations (and triumphs!) of parenting in the throes of toddlerhood. They’re so much older now. It’s such a joy and a privilege to be dad to these two great kids. Today’s your big day, dads out there. Enjoy it! 🦸🏻‍♂️🦸🏼‍♂️🦸🏽‍♂️🦸🏿‍♂️ . . . #greatjobdad #fathersday #fathersday2019 #tundrabooks (at Vancouver, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByxoOPqBILI/?igshid=10mblkp376mbi
