So I missed last night, but I will not give up! On we go…
—–
If a butterfly in brazil, can cause a tornado in Texas…
Think of what I can do.
Every moment, every move
Every action I do
Every decision and choice
Even the sound of my voice
Causes chaos to ensue
From me to you
And then cause is effect, effect is [...]

Suddenly the boob tube goes black
With a click and a hum the house goes silent
You never realize the blare of electricity
Until the air conditioners cause the grid to go into cardiac arrest

I know I have friends, many whom I respect and, when I see them, we have a great time [...]

The sounds of progress rush in from beyond the screen door

I wake up and take care of Amalea from the time she wakes up until around noon. During that time, she’ll take a nap or two, and she’ll play a lot these days on the floor by herself. Around noon, Robin comes home and I go to work. It’s been this way ever since Robin [...]

Last week I was in Rosarito, Mexico with the high schoolers from my youth group building two small houses for two different families. It ended up being a very fun week, filled with lots of laughter and memories that will last a lifetime. It’s so great getting out under the sun and getting [...]
