Dirty Boy

I just love to see Lukus come home from football practice, soaking wet, caked with dirt, and limping. And then this is what he says "Dad, you know those spikes on the bottom of my shoes. Someone stepped on me with a pair, but I am ok, it was great." I wish that I could show you a picture, however I have not asked my brillant wife to show me how.

A new year...

Some of us think a new year starts Jan. 1 st. Not I, for me it starts this Monday. The kids go back to school, Brenda starts up her hectic class schedule, and I have to say "no more overtime for me". Back to the role of getting the kids up and ready for school every morning, helping around the house more(since I am not working 60 hours a week anymore), homework, maybe football practice, etc... However I will say that I enjoy the schedule better. And I believe it works well for all of us in the end.

Hurdles!?

With God all things are possible.....

This was are main topic at camp this weekend, and boy did I find out the true meaning of it.

I have very low self esteem....however I got in front of 100 people and lead group games.

I always want to be very prepared....ahhhh not going to happen when you have 68 campers under the age of 12.

It might not show,but I can be a control freak at times....I had 7 campers in my group and almost all of them had to take some sort of medication....so control is gone and all that I am left with is a freak....ouch.

I am afraid of failing.....to much love for that to happen...thanks to everyone

This was my first time to go to church camp...ever as a child and adult....I will be going back next year...and maybe more than once a year.

Hardest thing to do at camp....lead mission squads....I plan on asking if I can lead some kids class on sundays'

Father of Friend?.....Which one for which situation?....let our Father lead and be a man of God.

A hurdle is a hurdle....what makes a hurdle tough is if you set it to high(goals, plans, expectations, wants, wishes, etc...)

Its been a good week with many challenges, but thanks to good friends and most of all a loving Father. I know that I will be ok.
