Kids Learning Old School
February 24, 2009While I was at Target the other day I saw a School House Rocks DVD. Remember those short educational cartoons on during the 70s that featured things like history and grammar (“Conjunction, Conjunction what’s your function”)? Well Luke just loves them–and heck, I am learning a few things too. A second “Old School” item that has hit my radar is the Christian series called SuperBook (i.e., Bible). A friend came and spoke to our Rotary group from the Christian Broadcast Network, and he brought some of these cartoons with him to share with the group. I had never heard of it before, but it was probably because yours truly was spending more time teasing his sisters than watching Christian television. There is a new, updated version soon to be released.
Clay wrote the book…on Ordinary Faith
February 24, 2009My pastor recently had a book he wrote published and finally told us all about it. I placed my order last night; I bet it’s a great read.
Great Quotes after the Twins’ Announcement
February 24, 2009It was awesome to read so many fun responses after I sent out last week’s email announcing the future arrival of our twin girls due in late July/early August. Here are some of my favorites:
- Congratulations to you and Julie! Just my .02 — girls are WAY easier than boys!!
- I will definitely remember you all in my prayers. As for sending money, well, you should probably call my husband for that.
- I am a very successful father of twins. Just in case you need some guidance or sympathy
- Davie-ettes: perfect!!
- You don’t know yet how much of a gift little girls are. Just wait, you’re about to be king of the world.
- Take it from me (as the father of three girls) girls are a mixed blessing. They’re great right up until they are about 14 or 15. Then somebody flips the bitchy switch, which I’m told doesn’t get switched off until about age 19 or 20.
- Good luck my friend…you will need it when they become teenagers. At least the twins will have 2 older brothers to shoo off the bad boys
- Don’t forget that you may have two weddings to pay for too!
- Congratulations! Welcome to the club “4 or More” kiddos!
- Remember, God would not have given you this wonderful gift if you were not able to handle it.
- They will have you wrapped around their fingers before you know it.
- We will be praying for your fam. And though we aren’t rolling up in your driveway to throw wads of 20s at you, maybe when the girls arrive, I can bring by dinner or something? Blessings!
- Enjoy some quiet time if you still can and best wishes!
- Can’t wait to meet the twins!! Little girls have a way of getting their daddy wrapped around their finger pretty quick!! Congratulations!
