I have loved my mom for as long as I can remember. She’s a great example of what it means to put others first and to (no matter the cost) push for excellence in everything…every time. Mother’s are one of the best inventions ever. Think about it. As least for me, my mom has loved me, cared for me, fed me, cleaned up after me and most of all, made sure my dad didn’t pull crap like this:
Mother’s Day is great. BUT today was the first mother’s day that I not only could celebrate my Mom, but also by honouring my baby’s mamma. My wife has 2 excellent role models her my mother and my mother-in-law and I thank God for giving me such a great wife who is a fantastic mother.
So to all you mother’s out there. And if you have a mom (which you probably do) shame on you for reading my blog on her special day.
As earthquakes, volcano’s, floods and disease seems like a weekly occurrence…I am drawn to the verses from Romans 8:
19For the creation waits with eager longing forthe revealing of the sons of God. 20For the creationwas subjected to futility, not willingly, butbecause of him who subjected it, in hope 21thatthe creation itself will be set free from its bondage to corruption and obtain the freedom of the glory of the children of God. 22For we know thatthe whole creation has been groaning together in the pains of childbirth until now. 23And not only the creation, but we ourselves, who havethe first fruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly as we wait eagerly for adoption as sons, the redemption of our bodies. 24For in this hope we were saved. Nowhope that is seen is not hope. For who hopes for what he sees? 25But if we hope for what we do not see, wewait for it with patience.
Reminds me of a song that I used to sing when I was very little, and I’m sure that I will sing it with Stella…
Tonight my brother-in-law Jordan and his girlfriend came over. We made homemade sushi. I’m definitely a FAKE sushi-lover. I like California Roll and stuff that FOR SURE isn’t really sushi…I haven’t made anything ridiculous like “hamburger sushi” but I walk the line with teriyaki chicken sushi…
Anyway, it’s cool to step-outside of the casserole box and eat something cool @ home.
Here’s hoping I don’t wake up in the night with food poisoning…
I have always loved Conan O’Brien. I believe he is one of the only “Late Night Guys” that isn’t crass and perverted. “Don’t Be Cynical”…something we could all apply to some degree!
So Conan…I’ll see you in September on FOX. In the meantime, enjoy the $32M NBC gave you as hush money
So I was out for lunch yesterday and asked for a Diet Coke. The waitress had no clue what I meant. I assumed it was a lanugage barrier thing…so I (like an idiot) phonetically pronounced…slowly…DIIIIEETTT COKKKEEE.
Still nothing.
Then one of the guys I’m travelling with says…”Oh, he means Coke light.”
3 minutes later…Coke Lite appeared.
Same great taste…Same zero calories…Different name.
