She brings me joy!

Yes, my daughter brings me more joy than I could have ever imagined. She is a wonderful child. Yes, she does give us problems but the joy she brings over shadows the grief infinitely - at times :)

She is now beginning to understand that she can't explain everything in words. So, what does she do to get us to understand? She pulls us to where she wants something done! I feel like a dog being pulled by my master. I say that laughingly but the thought did occur while I was being showed what she wanted and could not speak.

God answers prayer!

I just wanted to share with the online world another testimony that God answers prayer! Ok, so here is what happened.

Last Wednesday I was sitting at the table talking with my wife. Suddenly the left middle outside area of my back began hurting, pretty intense pain. I shifted my position thinking I was sitting wrong. The pain subsided a bit.

Later in the day it began hurting more, this time, I noticed I found it hard to breathe at times. Ok, I thought, I must have slept wrong or something. I didn't take any medicine, just continued my day. That night I didn't sleep well as it was hard to get comfortable. I didn’t feel refreshed in the morning. The following day, the pain occurred more and was more intense at times. On my scale of pain from one to ten it was now around 7 and sometimes 8. I decided to take Tylenol but it didn't take the pain away.

Way to go Colts!

Yah! The Colts have done it!!! I can't say how excited I am for the team and the city of Indianapolis. I am glad to see Tony Dungy win this year, he deserves every honorable mention the media can toss his way. He is a man of adversity and perseverance and it is good to see the "good guy" win. I love that he shares his faith and is willing to tell the world that God, the Lord of Heaven and Earth, is in the details of their team and organization.

Shoco update

Well, we are just about done with getting the Shoco website up. Josh is working on implementing the design and I have generated a decent list of FAQ's for interested users to read. The site will be bare bones for a few weeks but at least we are working towards our goals.

Our first real client faxed the agreement pages this past Friday. Once she submits 50% of the cost we can claim we have our first client! Yah! From there I want to hit the ground running. I know that there are other website owners out there who will want this implemented on their site. I plan to start advertising on SitePoint.com next week, hopefully, and see if we can generate more clients.
