My Son’s Mom
The picture above is perfect in so many ways. I have always been a Momma’s boy, but it’s fascinating to watch how much these two adore each other. There smiles are so big when they look at each other. Before Nicholas, Mother’s and Father’s Day were days we dreaded and got through. We both loved our parents, but the void in our lives was so loud. Now it’s been replaced by the richness of our son’s laughter, and no one can make him laugh like his Momma. Happy Mother’s Day to my beautiful wife, and I’m so thankful you are not only our son’s joy, but the one that makes…

Mother’s Day 2022
It is fitting that the Mother’s Day holiday was started, not by a Mom, but a grateful child. Mothers act, not for the recognition they deserve, but because they love their children. I’ve seen so many examples of this through the years. My Mom has given me so many things that I can’t list them all here. I’ve seen her sacrifice so much of herself for our family. I also saw her love for her own Mom through so many things. The flower originally associated with Mother’s Day is the white carnation. It is also the flower for those born in January, my Mother’s birthday is January 1. The flower…

A Miracle, Surprises, And Superman
At any given moment, we’ll here “I’m hulk”, “wanna play dinosaur,” or one of my favorites, “will you hold me?” We’re not perfect I promise you, but we try to always be grateful for the voice we longed to hear for oh so long. Tomorrow is Nicholas’ third birthday, and I’m sure most people know our story by now, but three years later we are deeper in love with our son, our story, and Our Heavenly Father than ever before. I say that, because we did not do it, in fact we could not have done it. There was no way, on any level, that we could have made it…

Dr Kings Favorite Hymn
As a child, Dr Martin Luther King Jr’s favoorite hymn was “I Want To Be More And More Like Jesus.” On this day we honor a man who changed so many lives, I’d like to simply share some of the lyrics of a very young Dr. King’s favorite hymn… The end of all my prayers is to care like my Lord cares My one and only goal, His image in my soul Yes, my weakness is revealed when by His stripes I’m healed He’s faithful and He’s true to complete the work He begins in you I want to, I need to, be more like Jesus I want to, I…

Religious Freedom Day
The right of Religous Freedom, it was drafted in 1777 by Thomas Jefferson, and placed before the Virginia General Assembly who later enacted it into law. This writing became the basis for the First Ammendment protecting Religious Freedom. In 1993 the President of the United States declared it a national day, the date chosen was January 16. This was the day in the first month of the year when it later became law in Virginia. Religious Freedom day celebrates the right to worship freely in a free country. It is on this day we recognize that not all countries share this blessing. Let us pray for every Christian in persecuted…
