A Story

By
Once upon a time, there was a wife. A "homemaker" to be more precise.
And this wife, she had a husband. He was a very fine husband indeed.
He was not just nice to look at but also truly a good hearted man.
Well, one day this wife was having a bad day.
The husband asked his wife, "What can I do to make your day better."
But the wife did not know.
"Nothing I suppose." She said wearily
The day wore on and though things improved some, the wife was inexplicably sad.
The husband came home from work only to have to leave again for his Biblical Hebrew class.
The wife fed the children and gave them all their baths.
By herself she helped them brush their teeth, read the Bible and say their night time prayers.
The husband came home at 10:30pm, and as he walked through the door...
the wife's worries, frustrations and emotions of the day were all swept away.
Because there in the husbands hands was a beautiful, fragrant and
incredibly thoughtful bouquet of roses.
The wife smiled.

...and they lived happily...


The End

It seems like a lot of friends had been hoping that he would be a boy. I would have been glad either way, but I am definitely looking forward to the Father/Son experience. The other thing that people comment on the most is his name. He has 4 names including 35 letters! Samuel is one of our favorite Bible characters. He responded when the Lord called his name, and he also anointed King David. Harrison is a family name. My cousin Brooke had a son named Harrison who was born with Spina Bifida , and spent his life in a wheelchair. He was a major blessing and inspiration to our family and everyone who knew him. He was extremely smart and I can't really say enough he...

The Closing of a Great Legacy

By
Today I heard some news that truly saddened me. The college I attended will be closing at the end of this accademic year. For me the journey began back in 1986... my oldest sister Shawna started attending a small Christian college in Portland, Oregon. Our family would go visit her from time to time and I would get to stay in her dorm room occasionally. I played pool in the "lower JC" and ran around the campus as a young child loving the attention of all the really cool college students. I knew that someday I would attend this same school. The doors closing of Columbia Christian College was devastating to me, but as it re-opened a year later as Cascade College I was not truly affected by the transition. My turn came in 1997 when I finally stepped foot on the campus as a full fledged college student. This was MY school now! I will not be able to recount for you the knowledge, the memories, the friends and the spiritual growth attained in my four years there. If I were to try, t...
