I actually thought we’d see this headline long before now… but it is still sad. And, it’s even crazier that he was killed by a sting ray, which only happened to three other people in Australia.. ever?! I figured it would be a snake or a croc or something. Sad for his family, too… he…

I really love what God created when he made family. There are not many things that get me “choked up” in life, but family coolness is one of them – even in the movies. OK, so I wasn’t really “choked up” tonight, but there were some real moments of coolness in the movie Cheaper By…

Tonight at the grocery store, our seven-year old son Ian saw a poster with a smiling youngster about his own age in full martial arts uniform, inviting him to come take lessons (for a small fee, of course). He asked if he might be able to, and my immediate reaction was, “No, Ian… we’re not…

In my most recent post, I received a comment to which I was replying… when I realized that the comment was way too long to be a comment. And, I wanted to bring to light some more thoughts I had on that “What If?” article I linked to last time. The comment I reads: Mike…

I believe we are in the throes of everyone’s childhood nightmare… CHICKEN POX! Ian has a crazy rash all over his face, and it’s spreading. It certainly has all the signs of C-Pox, so, I guess… here we go! Our neighbor has already asked if she can have Ian come play so he can infect…

I went to the post office today, in a bit of a rush, just getting the week started and as I was walking up the sidewalk to the entrance, I noticed an older lady approaching the building as well, but she stopped before reaching the sidewalk … to smell a white rose that was in…

It’s 7:47am, and I am awake. On Sunday. While that is sort of odd, it’s perhaps more odd that we are awake this early to go to the county fair. 🙂 Jen’s dad is preaching at the worship service at the fair this morning, so they asked if we would like to join them singing….
