Christian. Husband. Father. Search and social marketing guy. Coffee drinker. Blogger. That's about it. Did I mention coffee?

I just had a bite of a cookie dipped in cookie dough.

President Trump says Amazon doesn't pay enough in taxes. Senator Sanders says they don't pay their workers enough. At this rate, it's only a matter of time before they get the government's Rearden Steel treatment.

Over the last six months or so, I haven't been online much. As many of you know, our youngest son has had some health challenges. I've been essentially a full-time caregiver. He needed his mom and dad around the clock. Unfortunately, I've been away from my other responsibilities for a while. It wasn't just Jacob, though. I've taken the time to reflect and figure out what I need to do in this world. As God is wont to do, He added something to our lives that has pushed me in the right direction. We're expecting another little addition to the family! I will be swiftly and steadily returning to the online world. Jacob is now more independent than he was just a month ago, giving Mama and me a little room to participate in life. As the breadwinner, that means I'm heading back to work after a year off. I owe many of you an apology for being away without contact for so long. I'd like to deliver those apologies directly. I will be reaching out when I can, but please feel free to reach out to me if you're interested in catching up and hearing me grovel for forgiveness. Thank you to all who have prayed for my family and little Jacob. Two open-heart surgeries and a rough set of months following have not brought down our spirits; I know the prayers we've been granted have helped. Now, it's time to do my Father's will and get back in the saddle again. May God Bless you all.

The big claw arm. Ominous.

Chillin' with a book.

Prayers for this guy, please. Rough day, but he's doing better.

Apparently he likes covers. He likes the Brooke Frasier version of Sound of Silence, John Mayer singing Free Falling, and he can watch Adam Levine singing Purple Rain all day.

There are some things that just should not be.

My youngest daughter just did a double take on a taxi. "I've never seen one in real life before. I thought Uber replaced them all."

Reaction to Ummbop. Apparently not a Hanson fan.

My favorite Thanksgiving dish. Nothing comes close. Tammy makes the best.

Date night.

Since I didn't have time (nor desire) for sightseeing while in DC, figured I'd get my obligatory selfie from an Uber on the way to the airport.

Had a great conversation with Congressman Meadows today. The House Freedom Caucus is in good hands. Important note: Capitol Hill Club has great popcorn.
