From actor/writer/producer Dan Bucatinsky, executive producer of NBC’s Who Do You Think You Are?, a collection of snort-milk-through-your-nose funny stories of parenthood that will obliterate the boundaries of gender and sexual orientation, and sweep readers up on a journey into fatherhood—warts and all. In 2005, Dan Bucatinsky and his partner, Don Roos, found themselves in an LA delivery room, decked out in disposable scrubs from shower cap to booties, to welcome their adopted baby girl—launching their frantic yet memorable adventures into fatherhood. Two and a half years later, the same birth mother—a heroically generous, pack-a-day teen with a passion for Bridezilla marathons and Mountain Dew—delivered a son into the couple’s arms. In Does This Baby Make Me Look Straight? Bucatinsky moves deftly from sidesplitting stories about where kids put their fingers to the realization that his athletic son might just grow up to be straight and finally to a reflection on losing his own father just as he’s becoming one. Bucatinsky’s soul-baring and honest stories tap into that all-encompassing, and very human, hunger to be a parent—and the life-changing and often ridiculous road to getting there.

Okay, I'll admit it: I have funny (some may say weird) children. Our three children, Rylee, Davis, and Kalel, entertain everyone on a daily basis. This book is a collection of pictures, funny stories, and quotations of actual things our children have said or done. Our life... Quotes from Lisa before we left for a three-hour car ride: * "It doesn't matter that your brother has one more book than you." * "Well, pull your pants up if your butt crack is hanging out!" * "Quit licking your brother!" This is a one-minute glimpse into our life! Deep thoughts... Before bed tonight, Rylee looked at me with a really thoughtful look and said, "Dad, I just don't get it. Parents spend the first two years of their kid's life teaching them to walk and talk...then they spend the next many years telling them to sit down and be quiet. It just doesn't make sense!" I have to admit; she does have a point! Skid marks... Kalel just got upset because there were not any skid marks in his underwear. All I could tell him was "Dude, skid marks should not be your goal!" Normal family? At lunch today, Davis said, "I wish that for just one day our family could be normal." When we asked him what he meant by normal, he said, "You know, not being funny and laughing all the time and sometimes saying inappropriate things to make each other laugh." Lisa's and my immediate response was "Nope, this family can't be normal." He then said, "Yeah, we are pretty funny...and awesome!" So sit back and laugh at the craziness of the Robison family and the antics of Rylee, Davis, and Kalel!

Lighten up! Most of us take ourselves too seriously. Christian leaders, in particular, are tempted by the position they hold, or the power they wield, to lose touch with their humanity, become arrogant, and alienate their followers. But what about our tendency to shoot ourselves in the foot, time and time again? Can we laugh at ourselves? David McKenna, a Christian college president, brings a lifetime of learning to this question. By confessing his own foibles and laughing at the ludicrous, he finds that God is laughing with him--not to ridicule, but to give the special grace that saves us from ourselves. The lessons are humbling when the laugh is on us, but they can lead to the discovery that a sense of humor is a partner with the witness of a joyful spirit. McKenna shows us by example how to lighten up and find God as we laugh at ourselves.
