When people ask me “How are you doing?“, it’s really hard to describe how I’m feeling with a one word emotion. I’ve started to come accustomed to sharing this analogy. Imagine you are a writer and you give the editor you are working with a draft of your book. Now imagine that editor reading overContinue reading “Switching Chapters”

They Just Don’t Know
“Hi! Thanks for shopping with us today! How are you doing?” “Hey neighbor! Haven’t seen you around for a bit. Everything okay?” “Wasn’t your wife pregnant? How is she and the baby doing?” The hardest thing about being in the general public is that many just don’t know. When asked “how are you doing?”, IContinue reading “They Just Don’t Know”
Empty
The crib, the bassinet, the car seat, the highchair, the changing table, and our arms all have one thing in common; They are all empty. There are no sounds of our daughter crying. No diapers that need to be changed. No looking over the crib to watch Leah sleep. Nothing. It’s empty and silent. MyContinue reading “Empty”
Now What?

“Amen” “Awomen”: A Wake Up Call For The Church
I’ll admit, when I heard about the pastor closing a prayer with “Amen” and “Awomen” before the Congressional Session began, I thought it was a joke. I looked up the video just to watch it myself to hear the prayer and how others in the congress would react. To my surprise, there were crickets. WhileContinue reading ““Amen” “Awomen”: A Wake Up Call For The Church”
