This video was taken Wednesday morning early as we toured the Convoy of Hope Warehouse. It was breezy, and you can here it in the sound. To find out more about relief efforts in Haiti, go to http://www.convoyofhope.org

Haiti Vlog 1
Here is the first video log I shot from Haiti. I will be adding more over the next couple of days. Unfortunately, I was not able to post them from Haiti, but that doesn't change what is on the videos.…
Haiti Update
I have been in Haiti for the last two days. We're heading home in a couple of hours. I will post some video logs recorded along the way over the next couple of days. These will share some of the…
Waiting
We need to wait before speak; wait before we react; wait before buy; wait before we judge.
Vacation
Ahhhhhhhhhh. We had a great time away the last couple of weeks. Our family thoroughly enjoyed the time together to relax, see some interesting sites, and have fun. The trip started in Washington D.C.; moved to Williamsburg, VA; and then…

Connections
There is no question I am a fan of technology. We haven't even begin to see all the benefits that tech can bring to our lives. Social media is great. We are all more connected and more aware of people…
Save As
Anyone who has worked with computers for very long understands the value of autosave or at least knows to save their work at regular intervals. The first time I really learned this lesson was many years ago after losing three…
Nothing to do with Monopoly
Played Monopoly with my girls tonight. I have a love/hate relationship with that game. For one, it can be a really long game. Anyway, it got me thinking about a couple of things. Not the normal money, materialism thing about…
Listening
For whatever reason, listening is not an easy skill for most people. In conversation, too often we are more concerned with what we are going to say next than what the other person is saying right now. As difficult as…
Simplicity
We are so good at making things complicated. Too complicated. Unnecessarily complicated. We explain, when a simple "yes" or "no" would suffice. We ramble and stutter when a "Thank you" is all that is needed. We answer what wasn't asked.…
