description of blog

This photo was taken by our daughter, Sarah Timmons, or my wife, depending on who you ask. We were in Rehoboth Beach, DE on Easter Sunday, 2011.


Several years ago, on the way home from a family vacation, I picked up a notebook and quickly recorded an incident that had occurred involving our son. Eventually, I used that story to illustrate something about my spiritual walk as a believer in Christ. Thus began a deliberate attempt to document the significance of everyday events. Almost any ordinary circumstance in daily life can become fodder for another story. This, almost by definition, lends itself to a blog.

Of course, many of the entries here are just ordinary diary style stuff... the stuff of ordinary blogs. Good grief, I don't want to be ordinary.

Mothers

There is one faithful reader of this blog... my mother.  She has resisted the urge to post comments for fear that she will be perceived as a person blinded by bias.

So, to whom it may concern, my mother is hereby granted permission to post comments ad nauseam.  If it seems that she is biased, you are probably mistaken, because everything she says about me is actually true.

I am sooooo thankful for the permission to write my timeless,insightful,thought provoking thoughts. AND the freedom to brag. Just can't help myself!!!!!!!!!!!. However, as you said, I'm really not bragging!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The term "ad nauseam" was a figure of speech, not meant to be taken literally.

In this day and time it is so refreshing to read of caring parents. How good it is to read of a mother who is supportive, encouraging, joyful, full of goodness and kindness,has a great sense of humor(I'm judging from your comments that this is true), not easily provoked, nuturing, positive, friendly,loving (think I said that),filled with grace (and glory), understanding, brings comfort and joy, and is much younger looking than her age.(I'm assuming), and also protective. Thanks for the blog. It was great and I'm sure you bring your mother much comfort and joy.
