Let the blogging begin!

Hello anonymous internet people. I am Dharma Dad, or at least that's what I'll be calling myself here. I am 27 years old, work for the Sherwin-Williams paint company, have one wife, 2 cats, and one newborn son. And why is my life even moderately interesting for you to read about?

Well, for some years now I have been practicing Buddhism, of the Tibetan variety to be specific. My wife is Christian, and has recently had a reawakening of her faith. And we are trying to raise our son to respect both of our religions, as well as the lifestyle changes that occur because of them. For example, I am vegetarian. My wife is not. My son... well, he's mainly on the dairy diet, on account of him being 2 months old.  So stay tuned for the ever expanding adventures of Dharma Dad as he battles not going crazy, explores his faith, and tries to be both a good husband and a good father. Also there may be monkeys, so... yeah.
