Hey Chris, great thread. I'm 47 and as you know my girls are also six and eight, and I have a family history of heart disease on my dad's side. No extra longevity though. On my mom's side there is a lot of cancer, so I figure between the two the gene deck is stacked against me. :D...

Happy Birthday!!!! :D

4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one. [a] 5 Love the LORD your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength. 6 These commandments that I give you today are to be upon your hearts. (Deuteronomy 6) 18 " 'Do not seek revenge or bear a grudge...

Exactly. Embrace the mess. :D

As far as I've seen there has been no squelching of voices on this board over which sources of scholarly authority people have chosen to use. I'd say "Come and see," rather than fighting demons that are not manifest. No sense in killing the experiment still-born. Why not participate and...

I'm not sure in what context you are talking about formal mentoring, but in any context I would be wary of anything other than a relationship formed out of mutual consent. If someone else tells me "so and so is going to be you rmentor and so do as you are told,' I'd think that is a recipie for...

The Episcopal Church is often criticized because we don't have a person or body that acts as a strong central authority, so as a result we have a greater diversity of theological views and it can make for discomfort and the challenges that are obvious even to people outside the church. But I...

Butter pecan is my dad's favorite. I also like root beer and 7-Up floats.

When camping I most worry about bears, esp since we are in a tent. I am totally paranoid and make everyone change their clothes before we sleep and lock all our daytime clothes and every molecule of food in the car because I don't want to attract them. No food or gum or even personal hygiene...

Yuk, that is a lot of illness for one family. We have not had too many colds this winter, which is good because my six-year-old usually ends up at the Dr.s with asthma when that happens. I need to take her tomorrow for what I suspect is a sinus infection. I am usually quite healthy, just...

Ha! That's a long way off from the little deer! :o:D I've seen them around but mostly we have grey squirrels. We have a lot of fox, I hear coyotes but rarely see them, and we've had mountain lions kill deer in our neighborhood, but I've never seen one.

Are they the slightly smaller, reddish brown deer-like animals? We have a ton of mule deer that just hang out in our yard, leaving more poop than my dog did! I see some other kind of deer when I drive but never in my yard or up close.

Thanks Grey. :) If any flowers survive I will post pics.

OK, so I voted for grey's, but I must say there were some good contenders and Seattlegal's strongly appealed my sense of humor and short attention span.

I did not mean it was you grey! Really I was just joking about our joking.

Not sure where to put this. Just wanted to let you know that I've been sick so that's the main reason I've not been following my active threads. Nothing serious and feeling better. I may not be around as much for the next weeks because I've once again got a lot piling on my plate...

And that is fine Juan. I'm not trying to get you to where I am. You asked so I answered. 's all.

I think you are now asking about facts.

I think truth is the love of God.

What is faith?
