The Apple Seed

Parenting is obviously more than just having children. Today, we sit down with Sam and his wife, Suzanne, and listen to a few stories about the lifestyle and identity changes that come with raising kids. From newborns to empty nests, there’s a story here for every stage of parenthood, so join us as we hear from Dolores Hydock, Robin Shulte, and Jay O’Callahan on the world of Mom, Dad, and budding child.

On today’s episode, enjoy the following stories:

“Independence” by Dolores Hydock on Inlaws and Outlaws (6:56)

“My Little Accessory” by Robin Schulte on Jack & The Levitator (16:10)

“Head First” by Jay O’Callahan on Dancing with Fire (8:34)

From time to time, we'll post what we call a BITE ("like a normal episode, only shorter!"). We always hope that the stories you listen to on The Apple Seed will spark memories and thoughts that you can share with the ones you love -- perhaps even the people with whom you listen to the show. In a BITE, we'll listen to a single story -- one that we love -- and invite friends to share memories and thoughts that occur to them as they listen to it.

 

On today's BITE, you'll hear a story by Kate Dudding called "Jewish Rosary Beads" -- a story about a WWII Nurse performing a small act of service with big results. Sam is joined by Producer Jeff Simpson and guest Jenna Adams, who share stories of loved ones who've served our country.
