Still remembering
After reading several articles, looking at many touching pictures, and watching a couple of heart-wrenching videos yesterday, I am still remembering our armed forces. There are countless stories that touch us all deeply. There are…
Remember
I woke up in the middle of the night earlier this week with the shell of this poem. Somehow I think it was better at 3am in the dark, but I hope you enjoy. It’s…
A couple shots of the twins
I thought I would throw a couple of pictures of the twins in here today. Theodore loves to swing at Grammy’s. If he could take his naps in the swing he probably would. Taken with…
A look ahead
Looking ahead to tomorrow I will have a Veteran’s Day themed post. I have thought on this often over the years, and I hope you will enjoy it. I have always liked the Veteran’s Day…
Memories of the back yard
Yesterday I made my weekly visit to my parents’ house. I always bring the twins with me and we visit. I love the time with my parents. I want the twins to know their grandparents,…
What has been and what should be again
A picture is worth a thousand words. My beautiful wife and my beautiful daughter. Enough said.
Things I Wish I Had Said
This is another topic suggested by Scott Berkun, “Make a list of things you wish you had said.” Once again I am going to put my own spin on this. I may come up with…
Power thanks
I am thankful we have our power back. The generator performed exactly as we had hoped it would. It allowed us to stay in our own home, with heat, hot water, and the comforts of…
18 months of twins
The twins, Theodore Jamison and Jacqueline Sophia, were born in the same minute, at 7:45pm on April 20, 2010. Yesterday they turned 18 months old. As I went through folders and folders of pictures, realizing…
Family time in the family room
Last night the twins got their workout chasing and being chased by big brother Sebastian. It was pretty funny for close to 45 minutes as he was on his hands and knees chasing them around…
Cross country poem and photos
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.
Good morning
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.…
Dad, I know you can
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…
The ‘Going to bed’ Parade
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…
Parenting in the dark. My privilege.
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…
Our loss. Heaven’s gain.
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…
