    This is so great! I admire your courage in sharing your son with us. He seems like a great kid!

    Nice to meet you, Max! Your dad is about to do (or already doing, actually) great things on the web!

    Hey Max! I’m a BIG fan of Toy Story 1. One of the best movies EVER! :-)

    Thanks Sean for sharing your son, but more that that, sharing your inspiring interaction as you reveal your awesome father son relationship. Eric

    What a dynamic duo! Looks like you both had fun with producing the video and Max did so well. You both put a smile on my face with your fun-loving interview. Thanks!

    Hi ‘Max’ (OK, we know that’s just your superhero, secret agent name… ) I haven’t been able to watch all of your video yet -it keeps cutting out when some other screen shots of your dad pop up onto the screen, but in the little bit I saw – you were AWESOME! You’ll be able to take over from your dad soon, I think! I’ll keep trying to watch the whole thing until I manage! I SO want to hear if you answered the question I sent your dad! ~Janice

    Hi again, Max. Just finished watching ALL your great video and we think you’re a STAR and that your mum and dad must be so proud of you and your sister!!! Karate, eh?! My son and my daughter both do karate too! And please tell your dad that I can’t watch Toy Story 2 because the girl singing always makes me cry. ~Janice (I live in Scotland..maybe your mum or dad will show you where that is in your atlas.)

    Hi Max!! What a wonderful interviewee you are! I loved meeting you. Toy Story is an awesome movie – one of my favorites, too. I can’t wait to see more of you.

    I’m not sure if it’s safe to have that much of the world’s cute reserves together in one place I might have to report this.

    To Max: You did such a GREAT job on your interview! My son loves karate too. It’s fun to have a legitimate reason for screaming, isn’t it? I’m so glad your dad let us get to know you. You are a fine young man and I can see why your dad is so proud of you.

    To Writer Dad: I can’t believe you’ve been holding out on us! He has so much charisma. It’s not hard to see where he gets his perpetual smile! That beautiful relationship you have symbolizes all that’s good in the world. Children surrounded by that kind of love and nurturing inevitably grow up to be dynamic adults. Mark me down as a free babysitter anytime you don’t mind driving for a couple of days!

    how cute is that! I knew for sure that lunch bunch and garbage trucks would figure into this post. Tell “Max” that he did such a great job and I loved watching the video. Grammy loves you, baby. See you next week.

    That has to be the most awesom-est thing I have ever seen…EVER.

    Max, you have a great dad there and I am so excited you guys like to cuddle. That is my favorite time with my kids too. Keep up the good work and reach for the stars because you can do anything you put your mind to, just make sure you don’t throw temper tantrums ;)

    Sean, that is a great little man you have there. He is so grown up for his age. He also makes great eye contact when speaking, a sign of a true man. You must be so proud of him and I can tell that by the way you were beaming the whole 8 minutes. You guys make a great team.

  31. Welcome to blogosphere, Max. You’ve done a wonderful video post. I love all of your answers.

    Sean, you son is adorable. It’s obvious you and he have a very special bond.

    Oh, how adorable! What a great idea — videotaping an interview with your child. I’m sure years from now you’ll all look back at this tape and have a great laugh. Max is a doll.

    Did I hear you say, Sean, that Max doesn’t watch tv? Is this a Writer Dad parenting philosophy? Just wondering.

    Hi Everyone,

    I’m so sorry to those of you who were waiting for Max to come back and answer comments. Our little guy is SICK. We’ll have to save it for another day. I have read all your thoughts to him, and he did say, “thank you very much.”

    Have a great weekend!

    Dad and Max
