Luke’s Cake – Batteries Included

Luke is two. I keep asking him, “What did you do with my baby?” He is soooo big and turning into a mini boy. It seems like just yesterday…. O.K., snapping out of it, back to the present, and here we are with our little boy and his cake! Anyway, for our little family party Sara made an awesome birthday cake. (Remember her Super Bowl cake last year?) Let me show you just how AWESOME the cake was this year! Luke LOVES cars! He points to every one he sees, even when we are out driving. And he must always have one with him at all times. The center of our home is now a “Car Table” where he spends hours rolling them around. So Sara made a cake perfect for a little car loving boy! Complete with cars around all sides! But what is that up on top? It’s a race track with cars racing around! Check out this video to Sara’s awesome cake in action: [flv]http://media.kidology.org/flash/kblog/lukes2cake.flv[/flv]   We love our little boy! He is our wish come true!

GOD: Discover the Benefits of His Attributes

Found an awesome bookmark near my wife’s Bible, she got it at a women’s retreat, but you don’t have to be a woman to appreciate these thoughtful reminders! I’m posting mostly for myself, so I’ll never lose this… it is great for meditating on. I hope you enjoy as well. NASA photo taken by the Hubble Space Telescope has been labeled the ‘Eye of God.’ Because God is a personal Spirit… I will seek intimate fellowship with Him. Because God is all-powerful… He can help me with anything. Because God is ever-present… He is always with me Because God knows everything… I will go to Him with all my questions and concerns. Because God is sovereign… I will joyfully submit to His will. Because God is holy… I will devote myself to Him in purity, worship and service. Because God is absolute truth… I will believe what He says and live accordingly. Because God is righteous… I will live by His standards. Because God is just… He will always treat me fairly. Because God is love… He is unconditionally committed to my well-being. Because God is merciful… He forgives me of my sins when I sincerely confess them. Because God…

How Super is Winning the Super Bowl?

Reprinted from Bill Alison’s Amazing Time Management Secrets: It’s one thing to climb the ladder of success, but it’s quite another to climb the RIGHT ladder. Just how super is winning a Super Bowl? Consider these insights by guest blogger Josh Carter: From the outside looking in, Tom Brady appears to have the life everyone longs for, despite not winning Super Bowl XLII. But things are different on the inside. In a past interview with 60 Minutes Brady raised the question, “Why do I have three Super Bowl rings and still think there’s something greater out there for me? I mean, maybe a lot of people would say, ‘Hey man, this is what is.’ I reached my goal, my dream, my life. Me, I think, ‘God, it’s got to be more than this.’ I mean this isn’t, this can’t be what it’s all cracked up to be.” When pressed to answer his own question, Brady responded, “I wish I knew.” “My heart took delight in all my work, and this was the reward for all my labor. Yet when I surveyed all that my hands had done and what I had toiled to achieve, everything was meaningless, a chasing after…

Luke Discovers That White Stuff

Luke’s early excursions into the snow were met with suspicion and hesitation… what was all this cold stuff blanketing the world in white? He treated it as an odd substance he didn’t want to get too close too, and his first attempted ride in a sled brought tears. So Dad surrendered and hasn’t tried to get Luke into the snow much. But this 6-8 inch snow fall this week was worth a second try, and this time Luke loved it! Just wanted to share some pictures of Luke and Daddy playing in the snow. Always remember, though, Mom was there too, she just prefers the other side of the camera most of the time. Thanks mom for some great pics! All bundled up and ready to try the snow again… Knee deep and checking it out… The verdict is in… he cool with it. (pun intended) He even let Daddy pull him around in circles in the sled! Daddy tried to impress his son with Snow Blocks… to no avail. Luke’s version of fun was smashing the blocks faster than Dad could make them. But the smile was all Dad was hoping to build. Next time: Luke learns how to…
