Since I have been thinking about it a lot lately… The first is from a strip called “Cow & Boy” that is, sadly, ending this year. The second and third, well, I think you will recognize it. (Quick aside: Our rector in Louisiana who is currently a bishop in ECUSA […]
This past weekend was an emotional one for us. Of course every day is pretty emotional now, but Saturday and Sunday was on the very good end of that emotion. Mack’s elementary school dedicated a climbing “teepee” in his memory. Please read my wife’s post about the event and the […]
