Introduction | I am the father of four beautiful daughters. Thanks be to God and my wife and I suppose to a much lesser extent, me. In my life I've had the wonderful opportunity to work professionally for two dads, my biological father and my wife's father, who I call "dad" as well. I think the fullest life involves heaping doses of love, laughter and tears. Jesus teaches us to love our God with all of our heart, mind and strength and love our neighbor as ourselves. Seems simple but why is it so hard for me and others to do this? I am a man of modest means but have plenty. I'm not rich and yet when I consider how much I've been blessed, I feel like I am the richest man I know. |
