Nothing better than a good run! I've been running for over 30 years and find myself enjoying it more every run. Running marathons is a thing of the past for me. I'm extremely proud to have been able to complete 14 marathons. These days, my goals have changed and I have enjoyed running 1 1/2 marathon a month. Woot! Running 3-4 times a week is good enough. Spending time with my wife and kiddos, Juliana(14) and Jessa(13) are priority for me these days. GR8FL!

FAMILY....
I am so grateful for my family. My lovely wife, kids and myself have a monthly appointment with my brother, BJ and his family every month for dinner. It is something that we look forward to every month! "Good times," is what I seem to text them each and every month after I get home from our gathering.
It amazes me how the time gets by us, here we are, with our nieces and nephews growing up and off to college they go. It is bittersweet. On one hand, it is so exciting seeing the kiddos grow up and watching them do so well. On the other, they are just growing up way too fast. Just to fast.
All that being said, I think I am definitely more excited than sad. We truly have to do what we can while they are young and do the best that we can to mold them into the individuals that the Lord has called each of them to be. If we do that, the rest is up to Him!
I have definitely seen that while watching my nieces and nephews grow up! What a blessing! One at Georgia Tech doing well and the other on his way to Tech. It shows that the values and beliefs that my brother and his wife have instilled in them is evident as they move forward in their lives.
I am grateful for an example for me and my lovely wife as we raise our beautiful daughters to be the people that He has called them to be.
Looking forward to all that He has in store for them! Thanks BJ and Kim for being such great examples for us. We enjoy our time with you guys and your kiddos!
Grateful,
LJ

Happy 4th Birthday Juliana!
God Sent to Me an Angel
God sent to me an angel,
it had a broken wing.
I bent my head and wondered
"How could God do such a thing?"
When I asked the Father
why He sent this child to me,
the answer was forthcoming,
He said "Listen and you'll see."
"My children are all precious,
and none is like the rest.
Each one to me is special,
and the least is as the best.
I send each one from Heaven
and I place it in the care
of those who know my mercy,
those with love to spare.
Sometimes I take them back again.
Sometimes I let them stay.
No matter what may happen
I am never far away.
So if you find an angel
and you don't know what to do,
remember, I am with you,
love is all I ask of you."
