Thank You for 2012
What a year it has been. As I write this, it’s early in the morning on New Year’s Eve, 2012. I have been looking back at our year, and it has been one that we will not soon forget. Recently, I posted about turning 35 and about how it was a truly emotional year. So I want this final post of the year to be something a little different. I want it to be a “thank you”….to you. 2012 has easily been the most successful year of our blog, and that would not be true without the time you take to read what we post. So, enjoy our little “blog…

A Long Way from Cliff and Clair
If you know us at all, you know we are huge fans of The Cosby Show. We love watching reruns on DVD and we can basically quote every line from every program. We love that show because it was legitimately funny while still holding on to good family values. The parents were in charge of the home. Discipline was administered, but so were plenty of hugs. Money was plentiful in that house, but it was clearly communicated that it came from hard work. The family taught their children history. Education was strongly stressed (both in “formal” education and in the home). And there was a regular mention of religion in…

National Chain Prayer 2012
The idea is only two weeks old, but it has grown to something that I believe will be something we remember for years to come. First, let me give a little background, then let you know about a wonderful idea. Many things in our society seem to be moving quickly away from God and the Christian foundations of this country. Thankfully, there seems to be a strong movement among many Christians to counteract that movement, but in proper ways. No violence. No hate. No cruelty. Instead, Christians seem to be more fervent in prayer, as we seek to bring America back to her moral grounding in Scripture. In just a…

Teens and Twitter: Parents Need to be “Following”
I love Twitter. In fact, if you don’t follow me on Twitter, stop reading right now and click here to do that! I didn’t take the time to see how long I’ve been using this service, but I would guess it’s been about 4 years. Twitter is now over 6 years old, but in the past year it has really hit a momentum point as teenagers have come to use it en masse. As with any type of technology, this movement is neither good nor bad, it’s how it is used that makes all the difference. Personally, I think one of the reasons we have seen this movement among teens to…
