I'm starting to get back to normal from my 3 week trip to China. I have to say it was an amazing journey, and I could have stayed for 2 -3 times as long. The countryside was beautiful, food was wonderful, and people so nice and accommodating. Taking trips like this prompt a lot of …
Discipleship Series III: Seeing Jesus In You
A man in the crowd answered, “Teacher I brought you my son, who is possessed by a spirit that has robbed him of speech. Whenever it seizes him, it throws him to the ground. He foams at the mouth, gnashes his teeth and becomes rigid. I asked your disciples to drive out the spirit, but …

Where does the time go?…
I was going through my posts last night as I was doing some cleanup and organizing on Kid Stuph. It was good for a number of reasons. First, it gave me the opportunity to see where I have been, what my mental and emotional state was like, and how my blogging has (ahem) improved. More …
Learning a Thing or Two…
(I started this post a little while ago, but with my travel, wasn't able to finish it until now. Interestingly enough, I'm finding that what I'm experiencing now is an extension of what is in this post... I'm thinking there will be a "part 2 to this...) The last couple of weeks have been pretty …
Kid Stuph is growing up…
Not really :-). Just getting a well needed facelift. When I first started the blog, I knew that the format was only going to satisfy me for a short time. I didn't like the fact that the older format only had a fixed header, and just some of the text and layout was a bit …
One Is the Loneliest Number…
My mom's favorite story of me is when I was very young. I would go into the kitchen, take all of the pots and pans out of the cupboard, climb inside and sit there. I would be there for hours, by myself, in the dark, just chilling out. Every once in a while, she would …
The Stuph of Dads…
My weekend was pretty planned out, to the point that I thought I wasn't going to get around to doing a post. I literally had "things to do, places to go, and people to see". Some of my plans fell through, but all in all, it's turning out to be a good weekend. But back …
My Favorite Things…
The last couple weeks, I've been a grump. Not a big grump, but just enough for me to know that I was a grump (I'm sure others noticed it too). When I get like this, I get silent and invisible. Not a good thing when you are trying to have some level of online presence …
The View From 35000 ft…
Well, not literally... I didn't get my normal window seat, but at least I am not scrunched in-between a couple of people and all their stuff. 767's are good for that. I've been thinking about the recent events, and love the preponderance of blogs, comments, posts, etc. about the action against bin Laden... to a …
“Why” is the question… “What” is the answer…
When my daughter was about 5 years old, we stopped into a fast food place. Next to us in line was a young guy, early 20's, leathered up with a spikey mohawk. To see that now is no big deal - I see 8 year olds sporting the Do, but then it was pretty risque'. Anyway, …
