This was the first year in many years that I didn’t have a 35 mm digital camera on Halloween. Nikon Baby is still in the camera hospital in Los Angeles. Clearly, that fall I took at Bridgy’s spring baton twirling competition in Amarillo broke more than my pride. Anyway, here are the best pictures I […]
Generation Z and the Solar Eclipse
I celebrated the Solar Eclipse of 2017 with my children today. It was wonderful to witness their fascination with the sun and moon. Here is a prayer for all three of my children, Psalm 121. I lift up my eyes to the hills. From where does my help come? My help comes from the Lord, […]

The meet was held […]

Bridgy’s Junior Girl Scouts Bridging Ceremony (Pictures)
My daughter Bridgette recently had her Girl Scouts bridging ceremony. We celebrated her flying up from Brownies to Juniors with friends and cookies! New pins and badges, too. She was so excited to reach another milestone on the brief and beautiful journey known as childhood. It seems like yesterday she bridged from Daisies to Brownies. […]
Don’t Lose Your Love
I heard the song Don’t Lose Your Love for the first time today. The line, “I can see the mysteries of God behind your beautiful brown eyes,” reminded me so much of my daughter Bridgy. If you haven’t heard this beautiful song yet — the work of the Seattle folk band Ivan and Aloysha — […]
