How a father navigates single-parenting and how he finds support from his son in ways he never imagined.
Keith gets home from work most days around 4 p.m. then picks Everett up from daycare before 4:30 or else he is charged by the minute. The two make their weekly trip to Kroger where Everett gets to pick out his favorite granola bar.
Some days are exhausting at work, Keith said. After picking up Everett and running errands, he doesn’t have the energy to cook. The two love Mex-Out. Their affinity for the local taco joint came from when Everett was a newborn and they lived in the apartment complex behind the restaurant.
Transitioning from a full workday to a full evening taking care of Everett doesn’t leave time for chores. Keith finally gets around to folding laundry that’s been clean for several days.
