Is anyone old enough to remember the game Red Rover? When I was a kid, we didn’t have phones so this was one of our options at recess. In this particular game, there are 2 teams facing each other. The members of each team hold hands to form a type of human chain. The first
You live life differently when you know you are loved. We all know Daniel from the Bible – and if you’ve seen one too many Veggie Tales like I have, you may be picturing a cucumber right now but that is not the case. Daniel was a solid guy with solid faith but even he
Today, I am another year older. The wiser part is still to be determined. It was a busy day at work but I still found myself thinking a lot about my life in general. I guess birthdays will do that to you. I was looking back at my past, looking around at my present and
Every Friday, I have the day off. Right now, you are probably envisioning me with my feet propped up, and a People magazine in my hand. Nope. Maybe I should rephrase that. I have every Friday off because I cram in 40 hours of work Monday – Thursday. So, really, my day off is my
