I Love You More

This girl and her daddy like to tease each other about who loves the other person…more.  They’d go around and around…”I love you more…no, I love you more!”

One day, little Skylie came up with a love that was hard to beat.

This is the song written about that adorable true-life experience.

So, so beautiful.

Calamity!!!

Saturday afternoon I got a cryptic text from my son in Arkansas.

“Just got hurt.

Went mountain biking and crashed.”

“Hurt my ribs…

and can’t move my arm.”

By the time this tough guy drove himself home–yeah, I knowww– he was dizzy and starting to feel everything that had actually happened to him. Kortney took him to the hospital.

Long story short…

He broke his elbow. Bruised his kidney and ribs and has three compression fractures in his back.

This poor guy has an incredibly high pain tollerance. The doctor said he was amazed that he didn’t have a compound fracture of his arm and two broken collarbones.

He will need to see a specialist about his elbow and back on Monday.

Don’t get hurt on a Saturday…sheesh.

My poor boy.

I wish I could be there to hug him and make him soup. That always helps everything.

In the meantime, we’re all praying for a good outcome and swift healing.

We love you my boy.

Thankful Music

This guy, right here– my cute boy Dane, is taking classes in using technical resourses to make music–and is he ever having fun doing it! He started in October so he set up a full line of Halloween tunes. Some are silly kid songs and some are surprisingly spooky!

His YouTube page is called Light Shine University.

Then he moved on to a whole new, quite forgotten genre and made a long list of Thanksgiving music. I’ve been listening to it for weeks and I have to say, it’s lovely to have tons of gratitude-type lyrics in my head–especially this time of year.

He has written one from a true story of a sweet conversation with his little daughter that melts my heart.

And this one…is about my dad and it makes me sob. It’s beautiful.

I’m so proud of him. Please check out his whole page for tons of beautiful, fun stuff.
