Great reminder...

Do you operate from a need to BE RIGHT or a commitment to DO RIGHT?

If you need to BE RIGHT you will naturally try to manipulate others to get in line with your way of thinking and turn most people away.

If your motivating objective is a desire to DO RIGHT then you will attract friends and followers by your example.

As the old saying goes, "People don't care how much you know till they know how much you care," but the first few verses of 1 Cor. 13 says it best.

Your motivation will have a profound affect on your ability to demonstrate a selfless, giving love towards others.

How could I FORGET!?!??!

How could I possibly forget to blog about my little dude turning 6?!??!

Say it isn't so.

The event came and went, and I forgot to tell you all about it. Wow. I am a little scatterbrained! Actually, I think I am already trying to ignore the fact that his birthdays come every year. Where has six years gone? It took FOREVER for Jared to get to age 6, now here Travis is 6 already and I feel like it missed something.


Sigh.


He, of course, is thrilled to pieces to be 6. He said night before last that "life is SSSOOOOO much better at age 6"....LOVE that kid and his words sometimes. Cracks me up.

He got Legos, books, LOTS of money, a Camelback water pack and more cars.

He has inherited the Horton "smirk" as I like to call it...that no teeth thing, but when he lets a full on smile go, WATCH OUT. The cuteness factor goes through the roof.
Well, OK, you turned six Mr. That's alright with me I guess. You will always be my baby, and you can't HIDE from me!!! AAAAHHHHHHAAAAAA!! Go on, grow up. I can't wait to watch.
