Pencils, babies, Youtube, and kindergarten...

So a quick update on happenings of late:

Mandy got me a pencil set and sketch pad for Christmas.  I picked up a drawing set and tried my hand and utilizing the various shades made the varying hardness on the lead.  The result?  I had a lot of fun, and I don't think I'm going to draw the same ever again.

Went to another doctor appointment yesterday.  Brayson arrives in 85 days, assuming he gets here on schedule.  I find myself filled with excitement and a little fear.  Fatherhood is one of those experiences I always knew I'd go through, but actually being in it is something I can't begin to describe.  Looking forward to next month so that I get to see him on the sonogram again.

I'm sure you've all at least heard about the "Why I love Jesus but hate religion" video.  It's stirred up a lot of talk.  I gotta say I'm glad that at least some of his critics are handling their issues with grace.  Its okay to disagree.  Just be sure you do it in such a way that it shows love.

I've had to use some very elementary school style tactics to get my kids to behave.  The sad thing is--it worked.  Perhaps I've been overestimating the maturity of my students.

Until next time...

Keep Soaring,

B

  1. must be a season, i've been having issues with some of my kids too.

    I complete agree with you on the"Why i love jesus but hate religion" video. Some people have sadly disgraced our Lord by their response to it.

    praying for you bro :)
