EVERY MOMent COUNTS!
Why limit Mother’s Day to one day (May 8th)? Celebrate the sacrifices of the women in your life all month long. And this year expand your focus and see if there is a mom you can bless this month. Need some ideas? Before Mother’s Day, take a single mom’s children for the day to give her [...]
No one said it was going to be easy. As a matter of fact, I myself said, “For better or for worse.” The problem … I didn’t know worse was going to happen in simple, everyday life; I thought worse was only going to happen if I wrecked the car, someone got sick, or we experienced [...]
Easter Sunday was the first one with just the kids and me — our second since becoming a single-parent family because last year, my mom was with us.

Our son told us about several friends of his, all in their 30s, who are quitting on marriage. Sadly it is such a common occurrence that we are usually not shocked by the news. We shrug [...]
When I was growing up, my dad told a story that I could never forget. My dad was at the club playing racquetball with his friend when he twisted his ankle. Later, he was in the locker room, complaining of his sore ankle. In the midst of his whining (as he put it), a fellow sweaty club [...]
