The Mother Lode

I'm not sure how someone like me is so blessed, but somehow I ended up with a GREAT mother (completely out of my control... only by God's grace) who loved me unconditionally, even when I was rotten.... AND on top of this I managed to coerce an AMAZING woman named Corey to become my wife and the mother of my children. By God's grace she was enamored with me and my faults, or maybe it was pity.... but at any rate she's mine and she's wonderful.

I was loved unconditionally, and still am, by my mother. My kids are loved unconditionally, and always will be, by their mother. My little girls have some AMAZING role models available to them... I hope they follow them.

LITTLE GIRLS, HEAR MY WORDS! FOLLOW THE EXAMPLE OF YOUR MOTHER AND GRANDMOTHER!

They are...

• Patient
• Joyful
• Wise
• Smart
• Loving
• Christlike
• Diligent
• Creative
• Intentional
• Patient (yes, I know it's on their twice)
  
• Gracious
• Compassionate
• Generous
• (and your mom is hot too... you don't have to follow that one, though it's a nice bonus for your spouse)
  

It's just too bad that it takes a national holiday for me to say this, but it's all true nonetheless.

I've been sick for 2/3 of the winter... what's your excuse?

If I could type this blog entry by banging my head on the keyboard, I would. I've tried, but it just looks like this afrlfhvFHUN;sdvf;svfnsdfsdjklchnsdlhfdsfhlfsdhl;asdfhl.

After a couple of weeks of blissful health we again, once again, got sick....again.... did I mention that this has happened to us a few times this year? So... we're miserably pathetic as we fight off some odd variant of the plague. If you're keeping track at home you can go ahead and write us down for the following:

• Fevers
• Coughs
• Snot
• Ear infections
• Snot

Soooooo.... go team.
