Blog gone it!

Unfortunately we are unable to recover our old blog. This is very sad for us as it had two and a half years of our life recorded and all off Casey's life up until now. But I think I'm through the grieving process, mostly and have accepted it. So I'm starting again.
On the up side, I don't have to wince at my past nerdy blog entries. 

Right before our blog was lost I came across Henry B Eyring's talk "O Remember, Remember".  I've decided to keep this message in mind as I write my posts. I think it is important we acknowledge God's hand in our daily lives and give thanks.

My current obsession

Raising Cain, The Emotional Lives of Boys. Read it, just do it. It's only 258 pages long and it will change how you view and interact with boys. If you have a boy in your life, whether you're a parent, teacher, mentor or friend, you need to read this.
"...But as their manuscript progressed, Kindlon and Thompson realized a simple "how-to" would not do. "In the end," they write, "we found that the best advice we had to offer was simply to understand boys as they truly are ­ rather than as they appear or as we wish them to be. Our deepest wish is to pull aside the curtain boys so tenaciously draw around themselves and offer you a look inside their hearts and minds. If we succeed, we hope that you will see more clearly the ways in which our culture conspires to limit and undermine their emotional lives. We hope you will understand boys better, and above all, we hope you will enjoy them more"
