30 Days of Thanks – Day 12

30 Days of Thanks – Day 8

Hijack time.  Pull over Donna, I want to drive.

They say it’s my birthday.

It’s true.  I’m 39 today.  I normally wouldn’t draw any attention to this fact, but my old friend John Hoffman drew this caricature of me, and I wanted to share it here.
Being 39 is cool.  Thank you Lord for letting me make it this far.

You want me to do what ?

I got the following email from a friend and wanted to share it:
 

This really puts it into perspective and if you have kids in public school you should really appreciate their teachers!
After being interviewed by the school administration, the teaching prospect said, “Let me see if I’ve got this right: “You want me to go [...]
