Along The Way (10/Sept/05)
We just finished the music rehearsal for tomorrow morning. Being that tomorrow is 9/11 and that our country is still reeling from the devastation of Hurricane Katrina I feel like tomorrow's topic - The Character of God - is timely. When the rehearsal finished we played on for a half hour or so, just enjoying the presence of the Lord together. What a privilege to have been here. Thank you Lord!
Katie got a hampster last night. I remember promising myself that as a dad I would never see a rodent in my home that didn't meet his end in a trap! What was I thinking? The great news is that Katie is thrilled. The bad news is that her sisters are all jealous. I'm in trouble.
I have a few things to finish off preparations for tomorrow's services and the baptism at the lake. I better get to it... and then get home to play with the rat... I mean hampster.

Rat, hamster, what's the difference? After all, we DO live in New Hampster.
You can always do what I do when one of my kids says, "How come so-and-so got such-and-such? That's not FAAAAAYYYYAAAAIRRRRR!"
"Honey, they got something that you didn't because, frankly, I love them better than you."
Shut's 'em right up!
Ok, yes, I'll pay the bill later in years of therapy, but I'll take the silence now.

Thanks for the parental advice. I may put it to use. I know some good therapists - maybe I can get us a cut-rate deal.
This rodent has this really cool house - built in exercise equipment, tubes, chutes and landings, no-drip water bottle... how come they don't have houses like this for humans?
