A friend of mine posted this on his Facebook this morning. It resonated with me so much, I have to post it here, with all my heart: It’s the people that disappoint you most in life that really make you appreciate the loyal people that don’t. To those who are true, and you know who…

I love this verse, don’t you?
“Why do you see the speck that is in your brother’s eye, but do not notice the log that is in your own eye?” ~Matthew 7:3
Drew’s “School” Pics
Just showing off my Little Man. Drew had his picture taken at the Parent’s Day Out he goes to. I’m sure I’ll put the other pose on here, too. I was so proud of it, I had to share it with the world. 😉 I love that boy! Thank you, Lord, for both my boys!
A Letter From Todd

Checking out the line-up of speakers, this should be an amazing and intense week. They…
Should a Hungry Homeless Man Really Get 15 Years?
I’m a little haunted by the story of a homeless man who just received a 15-year prison sentence for stealing a box of cereal and a can of milk. Well, of course it’s not THAT simple. He has a long history of non-violent offenses stemming from alcoholism, but is it justice that such a sentence…
Reflections
I was looking through some posts on my old blog and came across the one from two years ago (tomorrow) after a good friend of mine died suddenly. The points I made then as I dealt with the loss seem very appropriate now in processing emotions and stress and considering “legacy”. I thought I would…
