Where the "peculiar" in Peculiar Treasures comes from: Why Sean and I are a perfect match.

Most of you know that as a pilot, Sean generally works for four days in a row each week, and then is off for three. Maybe you've been wondering what he does with those three days of free time.

He transforms his Transformers.

He admires his handiwork.

He surveys the amazingness which is his Transformer collection.

He thinks about how lucky he is to have a wife who doesn't mind the large battalion of action figures.

Now to be fair, I also enjoy my share of frivolity-especially during summer, when I get a big chunk of time off. Here's one example of what I do with my free time.

We bought a king size bed for our anniversary, resulting in the purchase of really large, king-sized sheets. Apparently I decided to be one large, king-sized ghost.

Then the ghost melted.

Then I popped out of the ghost's stomach. Hey, you would look strange too if you had just pretended to be a blue ghost, then melted, then popped out of said ghost's stomach.

Does it concern you that I work with kids? Or does it just explain some things? These are really just rhetorical questions.

We may appear strange and peculiar to others, but God knew we were just right for each other.
