What great stories your family has, and now we now why Lynne has developed such a poise and her students' shenanigans never surprise her. Living with you & the kids has been the only training ground she needed as a high school teacher.

Keep the stories coming, Mike, I read them with your voice in my head, they always have me genuinely laughing out loud!

Lynne, glad your whole family got to be there with Ken. You described the event so beautifully, so glad you were able to celebrate Janelle's life, as well as mourn it. Our family continues to pray for your family every day.

Lynne's getting all defensive over the word "pee." She's probably the original source of "drain the weasel."

This was a simpler time when no one cared that Zack was standing up in the car, holding onto Lynne's seat, with dad suggesting he 'hang it out the window.'

GREAT story. I was crossing my legs half-way through.

Dear ones,

May the God of All Comfort hold you gently in the hollow of His loving hand. In your grieving, always remember that He understands your grief and longs to wipe away the tears in your eyes.

In the quiet of the moments that stretch out over the weeks ahead, there will be times when sorrow will try to seize you and overwhelm you. In those times, the Holy Spirit will wrap His loving and tender palms around your heart and protect you from the pain that sorrow wishes to inflict.

Through all this, you will know for certain what you have already expressed: your dear one awaits the time of your graduation. When that day comes, as you step through the gates of heaven, your loved one will rush to your side. "Come! Follow me!" she will say. "I am so excited to show you around!"

Great story!!

We should remind Angie Buscher & Veronica Davis about the time Veronica had to pee while we were cruising around Grissom Air Force Base.

Equally evil, and in the darkness of night, Miss Veronica squatted behind the car, trying to pee. "TAP" on the brake pedal...oops. Sorry, V, didn't mean to light up the back of the car. "TAAAAAAP - a skosh longer" ohhh sorry Veronica! "TAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAP a whole lot longer on that pedal.

Poor girl had to go so bad, she suffered through us lighting up the night with our brake lights for a little relief.

I'm thankful I was born with a freakishly large man-like bladder. I'm not sure I pee'd at all last week!!!!! Waaahaha!!

Continuing to pray fervently for God's touch of total healing for every cell in Mike's body and every silent ache in Lynne's heart.

God continues His long reputation as a God of miracles. Once again, Oh God, once again, I pray, may it be so.

2012-05-02T15:22:13.557-04:00

Lynne... as you very well know. there is something in the Soul of an A player that sets there own personal bar very high indeed. Talking with Mike during my visit in his shop yesterday and he said something like "Most people who see the stuff that I make really can't appreciate the quality stuff, the dovetails and such. I have about convinced myself to quit messing with it" How silly.. I didn't contradict him but we both know better. The internal bar is too high. There is an old Ricky Nelson song from the 60's that has the lyric " Ya know you can't please everyone, but you got to pleas e yourself"..... OH BTW what an impressive young man is Mr. Zach.
