This word of the day is, “statute of limitations.” There are some things that you just need to leave in the past. Many years ago, all four of our kids were sitting around the kitchen table, telling funny stories on themselves. They were approximately 23, 21, 17 and 12 years […]
Don’t Assume!
I’ve made many innocent blunders in my life. The one I’m going to tell you about ranks up there with the best, or maybe I should say, the worst of them. Starla and I had gone to the hospital to visit a family whose newborn was having a heart procedure. […]

True Love is Sacrifice!
