A camping lesson from my son ~ down by the river
Our tent was nestled in the woods. A stones throw away was a creek that slithered through the forest floor. Julius and Samuel made a path down the bank to check it out. It didn’t take long for them to lose their shoes and get wet. After some time the boys came back for me…
Camping Catastrophe
Julius was only 5 months old. We packed the car and the truck preparing for our first camping experience in a tent. Aurora was so excited that as she jumped up and down her curls bounced right along with her. That contagious smile of hers was just what we needed as the last of the items were…
Missing education
Recently an acquaintance of mine made the comment of how a fellow coworker didn’t know how to multiply anything over 9 without a calculator. School had not required her to know it or memorize it. Therefore she was technology dependent. A child entering the sixth grade struggled with a few basic division problems and admitted that…
Summer’s Swing
Sitting on the swing set I grabbed both chains firmly. I backed my feet up onto my tiptoes and let go. Back and forth my legs pumped as my velocity increased. My hair was down and it moved with my motion. Tickling my face whenever it came forward, I couldn’t help but laugh. I got…
My Melted Heart 2

A father’s prayer
I sat on the park bench. The shadows from the trees waved back at me. The sun glittered on the walkway and the birds chirped a sweet melody. My children were riding bikes and rip-stick. They were enjoying the weather and God’s creation as much as I. The picnic shelter to my right was a…
A Father’s Gift
Last weekend as I went shopping with my Aunt Linda, she ran into an acquaintance of hers. He was trying on sunglasses. Removing them he said, “You all shopping for Father’s Day gifts?” I thought to myself no, but I probably should be. Then I wondered. What kind of gift can you give to a father who…

Funny thing about cats…
After a while they tend to “grow” on you. You see, for the longest time I didn’t like cats and didn’t want anything to do with them. Then something happened and that all changed. One summer, 7years ago, a friend called asking if we could take care of her cats for the summer. I told her…
