23 JunSexy, the New Beautiful?
I am a man who is attracted to women. It’s a fact. I admit it. All day, every day I am aware of the female forms around me. I may be driving down Main street and see someone walking on the sidewalk. Without even thinking I become aware if the figure is feminine or not. […]

16 JunThoughts On Being “Dad”
I am the father of eight children. By today’s standards that is a lot. When people hear how many children I have they often ask me how I do it. That isn’t an easy question to answer. What I don’t tell them is I don’t know how I do it. I didn’t plan on having […]

11 JunOld Fashioned Family
I just read an article about a family of five having a difficulty making do on their combined $110,000 a year. They were doing fine before they had their twins, but now they are on the financial edge. This made me grin a little. I support a family of seven on a fraction of what […]

02 JunFamily–A “Moving” Experience

19 MayThe Annual Fathers and Sons Campout
The other night was the annual father’s and son’s campout for our ward. The fathers and sons campout is a vestige of the “manly” days of yore.

27 AprReading As a Family Activity
There are a million amazing things in this world (maybe more), but one of the most amazing things in my book is reading (pun intended). Think of it—little lines, squiggles, and dots on a paper turn into meanings and images that change destinies and the world. People have been led to despair and suicide by […]

15 AprIt’s Official; I’m a Crood
In the past few weeks I have become aware of a horrible theme in the news. High school girls have gotten drunk and then been raped by high school boys they go to school with. The twist of the knife comes when pictures and videos of these girls during the attack are posted around the […]
