I didn’t get married until I was 31-years-old. That’s on the later end of average to be getting married, but I’m glad I waited. I always said that I would rather have 20 years with someone I adored than 40 years with someone I tolerated because I just didn’t want to be [...]
I meant to write this on Mother’s Day, but didn’t get to it. Finally found a moment to write it!
We all go through ups and downs with our parents and sometimes it seems like the roller coaster is a bit curvier with our parent of the same sex. e.g. girls have a tougher [...]
A long time ago – 22 years exactly – I gave a Bible to a dear friend of mine. At the time, it was not an easy gift to give. She thought I was some kind of holy-roller trying to tell her that she was a horrible sinner. I really loved her, [...]
The first time I ever had an argument with Alan was when we were dating. As we were reconciling, he said, “I’m sorry – will you forgive me?” At first, I thought, well of course I forgive you – that kind of goes with the territory of I’m sorry. But he insisted [...]
I found out that I had thyroid cancer in May, 2002. It is really amazing that we found it before it got worse or spread. My neck never hurt at all. I had gone to an ENT (ears, nose and throat) doctor to get my hearing checked because I have mid-range hearing [...]
Hannah and I were riding in the car today and started talking about fairy tales. We were talking about how some stories have been “softened up” for these later generations. For example, in the story of the Three Little Pigs, the original story had the wolf eating the pigs after he huffed and [...]
I hope it doesn’t seem silly to post this now, but I wrote it when Hannah was still in school a couple of months ago; I just never published it. But here goes:
My 11-year-old daughter asked me to come to her school and eat lunch with her today. I think it’s great that she [...]
This was the name of a song that came out in 1984. It was about a man who was paranoid because he thought, well, that someone was watching him all the time.
Today I was sitting in church and it hit me that someone – actually two someone’s – are watching me all the time. [...]
Hannah’s birthday was last Tuesday – on April 7th. She turned 11-years-old. It seems like time is flying by now. I remember when she was first born and someone told Alan and me that the next years would go by so fast; to enjoy them. At the time, Hannah was getting [...]
