Recently an acquaintance informed me that upon learning about my situation, has started praying for me. Usually, prayer is considered a kind gesture, appreciated on any level. It struck me, kind of suddenly, how strange it feels to know that for perhaps the first time in my life, this type of prayer is not only … Continue reading Praying For You! (3-22-16)
My wife and I
The Big Day (4-11-16)
Wedding day thoughts: I love this girl so much! I remember the day I knew I would gladly, easily, readily spend the rest of my life with her. At that point we were only friends. We've been through so much to be together. Each day I reflect on how unbelievable it really is that she … Continue reading The Big Day (4-11-16)
Our News (6-12-16)
I haven't been meaning to be a big tease, I just haven't had the opportunity to write this out, and I've had a few other more passionate blogs to regurgitate first. I've been eluding to some big changes in our lives and I'd like to share. We're moving! My wife got a full time Air … Continue reading Our News (6-12-16)
Our little slice of paradise (8-22-16)
We’ve completed the move! After a whirlwind summer, and about a month of living in transition, a few weekends ago we rented the U-Haul truck to load up the big things, and said hello to our new town, home, and life! Let me just say how thankful we are about several things: We are thankful … Continue reading Our little slice of paradise (8-22-16)
Coming Out Thoughts (Part 1) 9-6-16
I guess it's unusual to realize you are gay when you are 38 years old. That's what I've heard anyway. I've been asked if I had any idea before that and I can answer no. I'd never experimented or had thoughts that I tried to pretend didn't exist. Of course, looking back, there were definitely … Continue reading Coming Out Thoughts (Part 1) 9-6-16
Left Handed
I’m in a unique group of people. I’m left handed. Only roughly 10% of the world’s population is left handed. Growing up, I loved being left handed. I recognized its differentness and it fit my quest to be unique in the world. I loved it, even though it does come with some setbacks. Luckily I … Continue reading Left Handed
The question everyone is asking…
We’ve been together for a little over a year and a half now. We’ve fielded dozens of questions from family and friends about our relationship- how it started, the biggest surprises, reactions from others, having 5 kids, etc. Within a couple of months of moving in together, we were taken aback when a friend asked … Continue reading The question everyone is asking…
Military…wife?
I have a book, a guide to being the perfect Air Force wife. I stare at the cover, not quite sure how I got to this place. Certainly never imagined it. We love to joke and ask each other, “What if someone came to you 10 years ago and told you that you would be … Continue reading Military…wife?
Ultimate Date Night
So I took my wife on a date last night. Sure it was a Monday night, but we take what we can get. With 5 kids, we have to purposely carve out time for ourselves. There are times when all the stars align and we get a day or weekend to ourselves, but we are … Continue reading Ultimate Date Night
