Dori Said It All

One of the best movies ever, "Finding Nemo," says it all.

'Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming. Just keep swimming."

When life is hard, confusing, or just is, sometimes the only thing we can do is 'Just keep swimming.'

Kids

Kids are so wonderful, love-able, and kissable.

Yes, they give us some many things to choose to be upset about, but they are a true gift from God.

Choose to say I love you three times today to each child. Even if they may not understand, at least we will be in the habit of sharing our feelings with them when they do. I don't ever want my children to doubt that I love them.

God loves us so much that He gave us Jesus Christ. So we know He loves us.

Don't Delay

The reason I say don't delay is because I had a really good idea, that I think I felt guided to write about, but didn't. So now I can't remember what it was.

If you think God tells you to do something and it is something that is going to uplift you or others, don't delay. (If it is something that will not help others, take a moment to make sure it is from God.)

I think I was going to write about something cute that my daughter did. Oh yeah, I love coming home from work because I get this great big hug from my 2 year old daughter. She sees me, yells Daddy, and then comes running to give me a hug.

Kids are a blessing that we are never worthy of.

Yep, Life

Yes, that's what happens when you let it.

That is why I haven't written in a while. I think when I do write, I look for God more in the little things.

Like in:
My daughter's smile
My wife's laugh
My son when he is crawling around
The blessed job I have
That the cars work
That I can walk, breath, see, hear, smell, talk, taste(oh I love to eat my wife's food)
When my daughter wants me to read stories to her
When my son cuddles with me
When I am holding both of them in my arms, at the same time
The kisses I get from all three of them

God is wonderful. I praise him that he has blessed my life so much. I am humbled by these blessings. Thank you Father, in Heaven.

Life

I think that life is very hard.

Kids can get to you sometimes. But it is not their fault that you got upset. It's your fault.

When my children are running around, screaming and I have patience, I love them more because I enjoy watching them run around. When I don't have patience...

God is there and blesses us every single minute of the day. We have so much, it's, wow. Count Your Many Blessings. I am grateful for everyone in my life that helps me be a better person, most especially my wife.

A Good Book to Read

I was given a book for Christmas. When I first opened it, I didn't know what to think because I had never heard of the book before. I hope I acted excited.

But now after reading it, I am very excited I got it. The book is called The Go-Giver. It is a parable about a guy who is trying to get ahead in life, financially. (Hey, that sounds like me.) It talks about five principles that are good for making extremes amount of money. The funny thing is, though, that each of the principles are very applicable to how to serve and treat others, or your family.

I'm not a book critique, but of the books that I have read, I would definitely re-read this book. I want actually right now. I think you can tell if it's a good book if you wish everyone would read it.

Christmas

I just wanted to say Merry Christmas!

I love Christmas time and love trying to find people to serve. I used to be better at finding people to help out, but I think it is harder now since most of the people around us seem to be doing good. One thing I always have to remember though, is that if you act as if everyone you meet has a problem, you are more than likely right. Everyone has something they are going through, even if it is just something very small.

Pray for friends and neighbors, they might need the help right now.

Have a Merry Christmas!
