Reconnecting with Reading - Blog Entry

14 Nov 2009 09:07 PM

Your comment about reading to High schoolers reminded me of something my mother read to us in middle school. I think it was "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea." We pretended to that it wasn't cool but we really enjoyed the story!

Death in the Family - Blog Entry

Yes... that was part of what motivated the drive. I never knew any of my great-grandparents and I wanted to make sure Cillian would be able to meet both his great-grandparents AND his great-great-grandparents. Death's are hard... but children are hope! Thanks so much for sharing!

Unfortunate but Necessary Changes in Education - Blog Entry

Yes, trust is a very important component of all of this. Teachers could also do (and have done) harm. We certainly hope for a world where teachers can make a positive difference in students' lives. I'm so happy for you that a teacher could be a positive influence in a time of trial. The entire reason I wish to become a teacher is because I've had so many great ones! Thanks so much for sharing!

Teaching is a very powerful field... and one that is underrated. I'm hopeful that I can help my own students learn from the mistakes that I made. That may be the most meaningful teaching I can possibly do. Thanks so much for sharing your experiences!

Thanks, LISWILOCT09! I know that I've certainly benefited from the help of others. Perhaps my successes and mistakes can help someone else! Thanks!

Thanks again for your many prayers! We appreciate them! She's doing quite well. This last month is hard, especially because of the heat we have here in Texas.

Yes, we're going to make sure that mommy and baby are okay. We're still waiting to hear if he's turned yet or not. Thanks for the prayers!

To Be(ard) Or Not To Be(ard) - Blog Entry

Thanks Michele! My wife certainly prefers me without spectacles but is torn about the facial hair. She likes that it hides my recently forming "double chin" (an unavoidable genetic gift). At any rate... I'm now cleanly shaven (and spectacled)... time will tell how long I continue to shave though. I don't have a good track record!

The Paint Job - Blog Entry

Yes. It made me laugh too. I think turning the story into a humorous saga was the only way to deal with the difficulties the reality truly presented. 5 gallons of paint is REALLY heavy! Thanks for the comment. Hope you're enjoying families.com!

Father's Day - Blog Entry

Aha! I've got to remember that the web reaches much further than even the enormous borders of Texas can confine. If I got the guitar I think I'd write a lullaby.
