Dear Son, each day we do or don’t do something makes it easier to do it again tomorrow.

Each “I love you”, makes tomorrow’s easier.

Each, “You too”, makes tomorrow’s easier.

Use the first one.

Life is habit.

Like it or not, it is.

Dear Son, the Lord works in mysterious ways, trust this. Enjoy this photo of a moment in time that will never happen again. So glad you were there last Monday to witness me being so stunned I looked like a dork.

Note: February 25, 2013 photo shoot for a publication honoring the recipient’s of the Walt Disney Legacy Award.

Dear Son, thank you for letting me play both parts

Walt Disney Legacy is a lifetime achievement

 

How much time do we spend thinking about the future, and then doing something today, based on that?

Dear Son, thank you for letting me play both parts – parent and grand parent.

Three days away from 54, many of my high school classmates have more than one grandchild.

In fact, Aunt Lori (my younger sister) has four grandchildren.

I thank God for the blessing of not missing the opportunity that may not come otherwise.

Dear Son, the power in being focused and disciplined will reward you exponentially.

Ever have a week similar to the week after September 11, 2001?

Sad, confused, hopeful?

Remember? Of course we do. We know exactly where we were when we heard the news.

I focused on the “three percent” last night – Christine, her husband John, and her uncle Frank.

Yes, there was also time with Isobel, Brian and Joy, as well as Craig.

Sometimes we touch hearts without even trying, without ever knowing.

Other times, like last night, our only goal is to make sure we hit a bullseye.
