If you can't see it, is it real?

  • When Fun Turns Fearful

    We had our yearly barbecue Saturday. Close to a hundred people—all ages—attended. What an outrageously fun time. It was supposed to rain all day, which would have put a damper on water slides, outdoor eating and creative play space for close to fifty kids. It didn’t. The weather evened out; the clouds actually diminished some…

  • Be Careful Who–Or What–You Listen To

    I’m directionally challenged. If the sun’s shining and I vaguely know what time of day it is, I can somewhat guess the points on a compass. After that, everything’s up for grabs. Back in the day, before GPS became easy, I’d stop at gas stations for directions. I carried a notebook for this purpose–I could…

  • What You See Is Never Who You Get

      We began the year as thirteen strangers. From different places around the world. It’s been a journey getting to know each other. Not always smooth. A few potholes along the way.

  • Watch Your Mouth

    “Watch your mouth.” Growing up, I often heard this from my mom when she thought I was sassing her. Being disrespectful. Which, admittedly, I did. Quite frequently. Too many words and too much attitude. Entrepreneurs have taken Mom’s admonition and turned it into a card game: Watch Ya Mouth. Folks wear a mouthguard and have…

  • Played Well And Still Lost–Am I A Loser?

    Our family has soccer imbedded in our DNA. Over the weekend I had the privilege of watching two of the grands play in games that mattered. A lot. Not in the big scheme of world issues. In the competitive realm of sports for kids. Sydney competed for a state championship. Her team was new, first…
