A Grandfather’s Love, Demonstrated in Freeze Pops

As the weather starts to break a bit, we make plans for Spring Break, and I book my kids in a variety of Summer camps,  I am reminded that this summer will be different because we won't have my dad to share the summer with,  My dad kept these on the rotation, in every flavor. Not even sure how he gets them now because I think they are the equivalent of "kid crack"--made with artificial coloring, flavoring, and sugar . To my kids though, these freeze pops were love and summer wrapped in a bow.

Celebrating Thanksgiving!!!


In light of everything going on in our country right now, I am extraordinarily grateful. I am grateful to have my family with me. I am grateful that I have the privilege to parent my children. And I am blessed that we have a roof over our head, food to eat and the joy that comes in knowing that we love one another.



Life is fragile and tomorrow is not promised. So, I encourage each of you to honor the chance that you have been given today to love your family. If you're not together, give them a call. There are no clear answers with how to fix the problems illuminated by the Ferguson tragedy. However, it has taught us all to take nothing for granted.
