Humility

I stop today to notice the subtle aspects of life. The things that I often overlook while I am busy. The way my youngest seems to over enunciate each word in her dauntless attempts to be understood. My boy's bold statements of "being a man" while he breaks at the apparent loss of a chocolate chip. The heart of my firstborn as she gazes intently at her Grandad. My wife who works tirelessly around the house while raising 3 God fearing children and expecting another any day. Humility grasps my hand and leads me to this moment.

I am blessed beyond words.

Handle with care

More natural to me than any other form of communication. A true expression of my love that is commonly perceived as a razor. Sharp enough to split hairs and consequently dangerous to cause scaring when misused.

Humor should be labeled "Handle with Care."
