I Wish I Was God

// August 27th, 2009 // 1 Comment » // Christianity, Environment, Family Values, Relationships, Theology

Just had a fun exchange with my daughter after wrestling one on one for strength. A great daddy-daughter moment.

Lily: Are you strong or what?

Me: Yep, I am strong.

Lily: But your not as strong as God! Daddy, how strong is God?

Me: He’s the strongest! He is so strong he made everything. You know how the earth spins…well, it is like he is spinning it on his finger… that is how strong and how big God is.

Check out this wickedly cool view of the hurricane. Track it’s progress by clicking the image and leaving the web page up in a tab of your browser like I am. Also, please pray for my beloved Texans and the adopted sons/daughters of Texas.

My first dead gator. Team of three took this 10.5 footer down tonight on a flat boat. I was the one pulling him up from the bottom. Will post a little movie later if I can.

Hurricane Fay Advice

Non-Floridians like myself are generally unprepared for hurricanes the first time. Have no clue what to expect or what to get ready. Well-meaning people try to describe what it is like to live through a hurricane and what preparations need to be made. Short of two emails, these conversations leave me in a fog.

Front Row Seat at Life

// August 17th, 2008 // 1 Comment » // Community, Environment, Family, Learning, Outdoors, Parenting

I love that my daughters have the same persistent curiosity about life that my wife and I have. This afternoon’s birthday party had my daughters nudging the other kids for the front row seat at the backyard, portable petting zoo. They love exploring new things.

Here is the run down:
Donkey
Turtles
Rabbits
Chicks
Ducks
Goat
Sheep
Rooster
Piglets

Time to get back on the waterslide or in the bouncehouse or pool. Gotta go.
