Day with Briar.

Today I let Briar stay home from summer school. We had a really nice time. We went to a park with our scooters and rode around and played on the swings. Then we headed over to McDonald's and had some fries and cookies. Then one more tour of a park. I spend a lot of time with her already but it was still nice to just hang out and not be on a schedule. She's a good kid with a bratty streak. I don't mind it really, and I love her so much.

It does us a disservice as communicators in this century to be in our faith bubble and think that that's how people should think. It was a little tough reading all his stuff about being single and wondering about marriage and girlfriends ugh.. I know it was his journey but I have a bias, I think, about guys that aren't married. I just think of them as kids. There's an emotional muscle that marriage works that ...

June 6th and 7th

Got to do some stuff around the house. Bought and put out the flowers for the summer. Sat in the yard and read Blue Like Jazz. Took the boys to soccer.. ya know that usual. It was nice to run some errands with Alissa and just talk about whatever. I guess you could say we got to CONNECT!
