$100 holds your spot, and it’s non-refundable, since holding a time takes it off the calendar for everyone else. If the weather turns, you’ll never lose your session to it. We move to another showing.
Don’t see a time that works?
No worries. Send me a message! I might be able to shuffle things around or find another date that works for your crew. It never hurts to ask.
Things I’ll actually say out loud.
The running order.
Runtime: 20 minutes
This is my most organized session by a mile. There’s a running order, I stick to it, and the fun ones come at the end once everybody’s loose.
The list is only there so nobody gets missed. Inside each stop I’m getting you close enough that something real happens between you, and none of it involves looking at me. Proof that everybody showed up on the same day is easy to make, and it ends up on the fridge. These are meant for a wall.

Everybody, all at once
“Get closer than feels normal. Now closer than that.”
The one your mom is going to ask for. Ninety seconds and we’re free.

Mom and the kids
“Tell her the worst thing you did this week. Quietly.”

min 8
Dad and the kids
“On three, all of you go get him. One, two…”
Somebody usually ends up briefly airborne.

Just the kids
“Whoever smiles first is doing the dishes tonight.”

min 16
Just the two of you
“Tell them about the day you two met. They’ve heard it. Tell them anyway.”
Then the goofy ones, if the clock allows.
Noodles, Editor in Chief, says they’re fast like the post litter box zoomies.
A note from me.
Twenty minutes sounds fast. It is.
Kids give you about that long before the wheels come off, so I don’t waste a second of it getting anyone to look at me.
Look at each other. Stay close, keep touching, and look at them like everything they do is amazing, even when they’re being a menace. That kid is usually adorable in the frame. I’ll find the rest.
Samantha from Accounting has opinions. Her note: “Twenty minutes. That’s a full nap. Approved.”
Pick your date. I’ll handle the light.
Three showings left, November and December.
