Learning to Ride a Bike
Last night my son rode his bike without training wheels for the first time. What an exciting thing for a dad (and his mom who had the video camera) to experience…and what a fantastic memory that Bennett will always carry with him.
As I was uploading the video to my Macbook I couldn’t help but think of the power of commitment. Bennett saw I had removed his training wheels and said...

I will confess that I am not a...

That brings me to this blog…I don’t care if anyone even reads this; it’s the thought I have that someone might read it that holds me to making sure what I write...
