Hello, my friend.

Today is the second day of school. We crushed day one. Knocked it out of the ball park.
I only forgot to make one lunch.

I only had to make one school run to drop off a lunch. [...]

What profound truth is found in St. Irenaeus' words: “The glory of God is man fully alive.” This statement is pregnant with hope. Isn't it incredible to think that as we come fully alive, it gives God glory? He so longs to see us flourishing, thriving, [...]
