Christianity is Real!

Christianity is Real!

This may be shocking to hear from me but it turns out Christianity IS real. All of it. Not because there’s a god in the sky and pearly gates and a baby Jesus with a virgin mother, but because it’s the story that we’re writing into existence. The...
You’re acting different daddy…

You’re acting different daddy…

A relatively new business partner of mine named Dominic came to town from Charlottesville VA. We spent a couple of days working on a path forward for our new business venture called Here’s My Story. On the second day I picked you up from school and brought you...
Growing Pains

Growing Pains

A friend of mine told me once “As she grows you’ll be tempted to think that who she is at any given moment is who she will be. It’s not. She’ll become many things and they’ll all be different.” This had a big impact on me. I remind myself of it often and it helps me...
Something lurks in the shadows…

Something lurks in the shadows…

I’ve always asked you about your dreams in the morning. Not every morning but often. At first you only told me about your nightmares but now you tell me about a variety of twilight adventures. You seem to enjoy it and you generally have something to say. You had a...

The Tale of Two Evelyns

Our purpose in life is to be good to people. That’s what Evelyn had always been told. When she was young she took it as a matter of fact. But it was hard. No matter how hard she tried, she would always find herself lost again. Hurting someone or hurting herself....
Dualities

Dualities

“Daddy?” “Yes Evelyn?” “Why?” “Why what?” “Why do you keep saying I own it?” The “foundation” for everything I believe is simply this. Opposites are not two different things. They are one thing. One does not exist without the other. They are completely and utterly...
Tell me about Jesus daddy!

Tell me about Jesus daddy!

We’re in the kitchen and out of the blue you say “daddy, tell me about Jesus”. You had previously asked me about god which isn’t that difficult for me, but Jesus… that’s a tough one. You’re asking these questions because Maw Maw is taking...
Goodbye Paw Paw

Goodbye Paw Paw

Paw Paw passed away recently. Over the brief four years that you knew him we managed to travel and visit him often. For the most part it was the majority of the weekends that you and I were together. He struggled with Parkinson’s and wasn’t able to fully...
Hello world!

Hello world!

Hello world indeed! The default title for this first post feels apropos. I first bought this domain when you were born and it was obvious from the moment I saw you on the ultrasound screen in mommies belly that you were eager to say “Hello world!”. You...
