Who’s Packing Your Parachute?

Who is packing your parachute?

I’m not the most practiced when it comes to religion, but I do have a very deep well of faith. Listening to this podcast on a weekly basis really keeps me centered and focused on the important things in life.

Even if you’re not very religious (or don’t believe in a higher power at all) you will find this interesting. We all have people that helped us get to where we are today, and remembering that is very humbling.

Perspective can be very powerful.

Andrew’s Winter Program

Andrew had is first school performance and Sydney and I were able to attend. This is the raw, uncut footage of what I recorded, so it’s pretty bad. It was hard keeping track of Sydney while holding the camera steady in the other hand. But Andrew did a awesome job and we could not be more proud of him.

Santa

The kids first official trip to see Santa. I’m not sure they really knew what to make of it, but Andrew managed to ask for “a car”. I’m not sure if he was talking about a matchbox car or one that he can drive around the block.

Nothing goes better with my 6am cup of coffee than 3 screaming/crabby kids. Good morning Saturday!
