"  HOMETOWN: Dayton, OHAGE: 47OTHER GIGS: The West Wing, Parks and Recreation, Brothers &amp;amp;amp; Sisters, St. Elmo&amp;#039;s Fire 1. The most challenging part of being a dad right now is...maintaining the energy and the discipline to enforce the boundaries. I have two teenage boys who are testing their independence, so I really have to stay vigilant. 2. The thought of becoming an empty nester is...bittersweet. It&amp;#039;ll be really sad, but my wife and I are also so proud. The way I look at it, our children are ours for a while, then they&amp;#039;re the world&amp;#039;s. But that transition is definitely not fun. 3. A typical Saturday night is...the boys&amp;#039; having their friends over \u2014 so, teens splashing in the pool and listening to electronic dance music. I want our house to be the house that everybody goes to. 4. On Sunday mornings we...sleep in, have a big brunch, and then decide what we&amp;#039;re going to do that&amp;#039;s sports-oriented \u2014 surf, play tennis, watch football. 5. When I want to let my wife know how I&amp;#039;m really feeling, I...sit down and write her a letter. The same goes for my kids. When I want to show them the depth of how I feel about them, I write something. 6. The one thing I always do around the house is...take care of the dogs \u2014 four Jack Russells and a bull mastiff. It&amp;#039;s like a second family. 7. The thing I never do around the house is...cook. In my bachelor days, the priority wasn&amp;#039;t learning to cook. I was honing other skills that have served me well in 20 years of marriage. 8. In our home, we spend the most time in...the kitchen. We eat every meal at home together; there&amp;#039;s none of this &amp;quot;one eats in that room while another is at a friend&amp;#039;s house&amp;quot; stuff. I&amp;#039;ve made that a priority. 9. On the spectrum of housekeeping, I&amp;#039;m...in the middle. It may not look so good, but I know where everything is, which butts up against my wife&amp;#039;s style \u2014 every single thing in its place. I was smart and married somebody who could do for me what I couldn&amp;#039;t do for myself. Check out more of the men you love! "^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
