I woke up this morning to an email from my son Ryan who is out in California following his dream of playing baseball. He is a freshman at Ohlone College in Fremont, CA.

Of course being three hours behind us, I don’t see some of his evening emails until the following day. Anyway, Theodore was up before 6am, so I brought him downstairs with me to get our day started.
Early this morning I was sitting on the couch holding Jacqueline, who was wrapped in a blanket, and enjoying the cuddle time with dad, when I noticed some movement outside the window. I looked closer…
I was watching the Brewers and Cardinals play Game Six of their series last night when my mind started wandering towards a thought I will be sharing here for the next few minutes. Albert Pujols and Prince…
The title of the hymn, ‘How great thou art’, says it all really. As I have written before, it really is one of my favorite hymns. Singing the words, or even hearing a beautiful version of this…
Good morning. It’s nice to see the sun this morning after a couple of dark, gray, wet days. We have hockey and then my nephews birthday to celebrate today. Looking forward to a fun day with family.…
How do you think the Red Sox will finish in 2012? If you had to guess today, before any more moves are completed, what would your answer be? Send this around to your friends, and…
I am not sure this piece needs to be any longer than the title. I just wanted to share a few thoughts as a life long Red Sox fan who knows a lot less about…
Dad, I know you can do it. You may doubt yourself or maybe even wonder if the effort is worth the trouble. I am not sure if my opinion counts or not, but I think…
Just about two weeks ago I started this blog. I enjoy writing and sharing. I write almost every day. This blog is linked to my Facebook page, so every time I post you can see it…
My eyes open for the first time of the day. With gravity pressing me further into my bed and pillow, I muster the energy and turn my head, lifting only my eyes toward the morning…
This is a piece I shared on Facebook a few weeks back. I thought I would post it to the blog with a few tweaks and updates added in. This routine has worked so well…
Sometimes I wish I knew how many times my mom and dad had to change their plans, get up in the night, or get up earlier than they wanted to, on account of me in…
The Boston Bruins raised their Stanley Cup Championship banner to the rafters last night. I enjoyed the ceremony. These things tend to get dragged out a bit, maybe too long, but I liked last night’s…
This is an update to a post I published back on October 6th. On October 11th, my family and our church family lost another dear friend. Rev. Lafayette Pinckney passed away on October 11th. Although…
Baseball undoubtedly will fill lots of space on this site. It’s what I know, it’s one of the things I dearly love. Today is about team. Just team, baseball team, any sports team, work team,…
Baseball. Baseball in the fall. Games starting in the afternoon. It’s supposed to be played during the day, right? That’s how we played it growing up. That’s how our baseball heroes played it. It’s kind…
This was on my mind so I decided to throw some thoughts at this before I forgot to. I suppose I will get to the end of this and ask anyone reading this a couple…
Ok, right to the point. I have started a blog at the urging of some friends and family. It can be found here at https://1inawesomewonder.com. My site name describes me, often times in humbled adoration…
I know there are a lot of people out there who think Terry Francona carries as much or more blame than the players, Theo Epstein, or the front office do for this season’s epic collapse.…
I wrote this in the wee hours of Thursday morning after the Red Sox completed their implosion. I set this site up today and have posted this as my first post. Where do I begin?…
