    It's become such a trend to make a mess of your kids, as exampled in public continually by parents who may or man not have been raised the same way. The Bible has a lot to say about raising kids that is very valuable. I believe children have it very hard nowadays and will not know it till they are grown.

    Do you and Dave have children? I feel like I should know this, but don't. Beautiful thoughts.

    Fondly,
