Favorites of o8 Fatherhood

So being a father does change you, in to many ways to mention and in ways you don't even know till way later. I have enjoyed being a father immensely and as Kaiya gets older and is able to interact more and communicate more it becomes more fun. We have started to have father child dates recently or as she puts it ice cream date, and those moments have been awesome and will continue to cherish these moments cause man she is growing fast. I have enjoyed her at every stage and thank God for the blessing she has been to our lives. I just hope and pray that I can be the father God wants me to be and that I can live up to the great responsibility of raising her and the other little one on the way. It is tiring stressful and challenging to have little ones but man is it the coolest thing ever. Enjoy the blogger exclusive pic of daddy and Kaiya being really cool for the camera.

Favorites of o8 the Election

So one of my favorite events of 08 was the presidential election. It was historic, surprising, and very interesting. I was glad to see that for the most part it was a year in which the winner did not use fear or the lowest common denominator. I found myself more than any other election glued to the news shows during important events of the election. Is that cause I'm getting older? I hope not, I think cause of the intrigue of it all. I won't go into all the ins and outs of it, cause by now we've heard it all, but it is one of my favorites of the 08 year.

Best of 08, finally!


So it's been a while since I've blogged and the best of 08 is way late , but better late than never. My first best of goes to Jon Foreman's entry into the solo world. He released four ep's named after the four seasons. An acoustic set of songs that are just plain beautiful and a little experimental. Along with the beautiful music goes wonderful lyrics that speak to the spiritual struggles of Jon which really touch at the heart of the human experience. If you have a chance you must listen to these four ep's which are now available on one album.
