While some might argue to the contrary (my husband, for example), I don’t write 24/7. I do have a life. Which brings me to topic of children. We have two. Both boys, just 17 months apart in age and the joy of my life.

Our hopes and dreams for our children are no different today than they were the days they were born. We wanted to raise strong, godly men who would be kind, self-sufficient, and generous. And it’s been an uphill battle given our culture that peddles just the opposite: entitlement, greed, and self-centeredness.
