At The End Of The Day, We Must Figure This Out Through Thoughtful Prayer

Ready to go? Did we forget anyone or anything?

A little easier than herding cats…

The extra effort to be early provides unique views invisible to most…

The children and chaperones had a great tour…

Yeah, I wish I could have had a do over…

At the end of the day, God will never punish us for making a mistake in trying to do the right thing. Our son will never have to worry about not knowing how to apologize – I’ve modeled it far too often for him to forget.

When You Act This Way

Dear Son, when you use your Faith, rock solid values, creativity, survival skills and a win-win attitude, you can march confidently in the direction of your dreams.

There is a peace that knows no understanding when you act as a Godly man, and at the same time, a manly man.

Dear Son, Trust Is Everything

Dear Son, trust is everything. Rare. Priceless really. You must extend it if you wish to receive it – beware that you may not get it in return. Just a fact of life.

Dear Son, This Is How It Works

Dear Son, life is pretty straight forward. It will be hard, fun, exciting, tempting, fulfilling, heavy, and if we’re lucky, long.

You will work most of you life. In ‘the old days’, most people got a job with a company that took care of them – regular work for regular pay, benefits, opportunity, etc.

The world you’re headed to is one in which old paradigms are being rewritten or crushed.

Pray for guidance as you move through your ‘career’ and support yourself (at first) and then your Family. The earlier you learn and embrace an entrepreneurial spirit, the sooner you’ll have a plan B.
