Home Memories

Over the past 8 years, I have held various jobs. Having had no real education, I have had to make the best of an unfortunate situation. I won’t go a step further, however, without saying that God has chosen to bless my “less than ideal” situation in a God-sized way. Since I met Kara I have gone from being a knuckle-head student to a Pawnbroker, Alarm Systems Salesman, Waiter, Freight Expeditor, Freight Broker, Freight Brokerage Salesman… and now, by the grace of God, a webmaster (I taught myself as a hobby, because I hated every job I’ve ever had).

But, I have to say that over the years, there is 1 thing that has really stayed the same for me… the feeling of being home. I love the smell of dinner cooking, while watching the evening news, and the racket my kids make while running around, hurting each other. I am convinced that when I grow old and gray, those are the moments that I will remember and miss the most. For some reason it’s taken me so long to realize that it’s what happens everyday…. the bumps, the bruises, the kisses, the smiles, the sounds, the smells… that I need to treasure the most.

I gotta get my camcorder… I’m missing everything!! ahhhhhh….
