I can’t believe that Kyle and I have been married for five years now. If feels like it’s been both longer and shorter at the same time. We have already gone through so many changes together and are about to go through Army life together; time truly goes by faster than we expect. [...]

Time Keeps on Slipping Into the Future

I cannot believe how inattentive I can be sometimes. In my defense I am now taking care of two little boys and the toddler is very active. Still, I do believe it is long past due to give an update for family and friends on what’s going on in the lives of the [...]

My mom reminded me that I’ve been lax in adding pictures to the gallery. I had been posting to Facebook but forgot to do the second half and put them up here too. I have put up updates in Occassions and Events and in David’s Albums for your viewing pleasure.

Since I don’t bother with news from conventional sources, I learned this morning from Doug Wilson that there are folks in Congress actually considering passing a bill that permits open homosexuality in the military, along with his analysis that passing such a law just flips whose activities are illegal. If sodomy is permitted in [...]

I’ve always been the sort of person who is profoundly affected by fiction. When I hear people talk about the importance of reading, only to discover that every book they ever read falls in the category of non-fiction, I get a little testy. Okay, I get mad. Non-fiction isn’t reading; it’s being [...]
