Okay, this really is my last post. I told my brother, Jim, (who, consequently, is engaged to Becca Marie) that I would post these. I wanted to show him how tough my number two son is. So click on this picture and browse the other images of his Thanksgiving experience.

I hope you all have moments like this. It's so good to be trusted.
Isn't it unbelievable (almost) that the Creator of the universe became one of these. He really gave up everything long before He died for us.
In IT'S A WONDERFUL LIFE Clarence the angel says he jumped into the river to save George the despondant man. George couldn't understand. Clarence jumped in the river first. How was he trying to save George who was, apparently, standing on firm ground.
How is it that God thought He could save us by becoming weaker than we are, by making Himself dependant on us?
Read one of the Gospels (Matthew, Mark, Luke, or John). Can I say this without sounding cliché? Probably not, It's The Best Story!!
I'm signing off until January. In the packing process, it's time to pack the computer. Here's your homework over the break: leave some good comments on this blog. It's not that hard to figure out. It's free. You can be anonymous. No excuses.

This is a shot I took of Drew's shoe tonight.
He's a cool kid. Some day I'll have to post a shot of him playing with his hair. I'll bet that cute little habit is going to drive some girl wild... someday.

I don't have any idea what those kids where singing, but look at them, they're just singing their hearts out. I had a good night with my son tonight. I got him, all sudsy, out of the bath and we talked for a while. I put him to bed and we prayed. He told me about some kids that say bad words, and I told him I would teach him a verse about bad words tomorrow.
So often, God uses my family to keep me grounded. I have to be careful that I don't put them above Him. For as long as I can remember, I have dreamed of having a family just like the one I have now, but my finite mind is just begining to grasp what a blessing it is to be a child of God. I'm a part of His family, and I barely even take advantage of it.

Just looking at this picture brings be back to a place of serenity. When weighed on an honest set of scales my life proves to be pure gold. Still, I have a lot of termoil that runs deep. I know that God has good plans for my life. He has proven it every minute of the last 29 years. But I get pretty twisted up thinking about the future. I find myself thinking, "God why don't you show me what to do soon. Right now, I'm honoring you, but I don't know how long I can keep it up. Provide for me like You said You would."
I know it's only my faith that's lacking.

This is our first baby girl. I don't know exactly what you're supposed to do with a girl, but a lot of our friends have girls. So they'll give us some tips. My uncle says, "An issue is never finished, and never give in." That's a paraphrase. I don't really like that idea. So I'm going to start working in the opposite direction. I'll give in as often as possible, and I'll talk with her until I understand her completely.
