I Love You

It's just you and me,
on my island of hope.
Breath between us, could be miles.
Let me surround you.
My sea to your shore.
Let me be the calm you seek.

"I love you."
-Sarah McLachlan

I Will Notice

Quote from the movie "Shall We Dance?"....

"We need a witness to our lives.  There's a billion people on the planet.... I mean, what does any one life mean?

But in marriage, you're promising to care about everything.  The good things, the bad things, the terrible things, the mundane things... all of it, all the time, every day.

You're saying 'Your life will not go unnoticed because I will notice it.  Your life will not go unwitnessed because I will be your witness.'"

My Boy

Just had to say this...

The Lord has blessed with me an amazing Son in Benjamin.  He's exactly the type of boy I always dreamed of having. He is very friendly, easy to get along with, happy, smart and fun to be around. From a very early age, he had a rare type of confidence not typically found in young children. Nothing was too big, too scary, or too difficult to him to tackle. He always had a strong sense of success whether the task was learning to ride a bike, or nailing together wood for building a bridge or a fort. He has an excellent imagination and is full of great ideas on ways to do things better. He is very smart!

Ben is a very loving boy, and has touched many peoples lives through the years. He is also an amazing friend and has a way of humbly relating and getting along with just about anyone. He has an amazing future ahead of him. Someday he is going to be a great husband, father and employee. Many will be blessed by his life.

I love you Ben!
