Jesus; the one I always run to, because He is always there… is He enough? Yes, that is why I run to Him first, no matter what…


Lisa-Marie; the one I run to next, she is enough because I know what it means to not have. The name Eve, (which is every women on earth, daughter’s of Eve) when worked out to the very end means “Life Saver” and, yes, she saved my life and continues to every day!


My six children; because every one of them is very unique and mind-blowing! Tyler because he is me, but at 15, he is my 25. Alexis because at 16, she is what we all want to be when we grow up. Michael because at 13, he is what every one in America dreams of being, but doesn’t care and wants to please his Father in heaven more then his father on earth. Emily because at 13, when she finds out who she is, the earth will be changed for ever. Caleb because at 9, he already prays down heaven and cares more for orphans then himself, really. Noah because at 4, he has brought a broken family together, and made it whole.


Dad and Mom; mom kept me alive and still tells me who I am today, and dad, besides being my hero, he is my best friend.

My covenant brothers; Tom, Seth, Andrew, Justin, Danny, Brett, because despite me, you are still here.


Me; because I have forgiven myself and choose everybody above, everyday.

Happy Thanksgiving, enjoy your family today, they are all you have!

  4. I have watched you growing by leaps and bounds, I have watched spiritual maturity sweeping over you, I have watched you with your family and wife, I have watched you with your wonderful friends, most of whom we have adopted as our own. Now the Lord is your watchman and He is pleased. Psalm 127 for today. Lets be very thankful.
