This day started out like many have recently. I was tired from the long day before, and overwhelmed with how many different things I needed to do this day. I fell asleep by 4:30am or so the night before, and then, with the regular hustle and bustle of life around here (except perhaps a bit…
Family
Oh, To Be Noticed
A few times today I noticed my infant daughter, and recognized her with a smile or just by saying her name. Obviously it was just a small gesture of kindness, but for some reason, it means the world to her. Maybe especially from Dad? But regardless of the one who is noticing, it was very…
Cute Campbell Kid Stories
Jen has just posted another entry to our family website with four cute stories from our middle kids. They’re at a fun age, 2.5 and 5. Lots of interesting and fun things come from their hearts and minds out through their tiny mouths. Definitely worth the read. 🙂 www.WeTheCampbells.net
Vacation

Our Son, Jake
We are really enjoying this break from the hectic life of organized Christianity these days. We don’t have all the meetings or rehearsals for the stage production, and we don’t have to all go our separate ways for hours each Sunday morning or the occasional Saturday night. It’s been nice… just a way that we…
Loss
“I came naked from my mother’s womb, and I will be stripped of everything when I die. The LORD gave me everything I had, and the LORD has taken it away. Praise the name of the LORD!” Those were the first words – words of worship – immediately following Job’s hearing the news that his…
