A Whale of a Tale

When Ian and I were pregnant with John, one of the first things I asked after our first ultra sound seeing that beautiful beating heart and perfect developing baby was what kind of theme we were going to decorate with.

It had been years since I had been to one and honestly all I remember from it was nobody's husbands took out the trash without being asked.

A Thought on Talents

This past week I read both at home and in church the parable of the talents, Matthew 25:14-30.

Where did the time go?

Last week the clock that hung in the dining room fell off the wall and broke. It was not a huge deal, you know these things happen.

When you look at the big picture we are not just waiting for our food to arrive, for the meeting to start or at stop lights, we are waiting to die.
