Have a great day

I haven't posted in several days so I thought I would give a quick update of my family. Several have mentioned that I spoke Sunday morning on giving. I don't mind the public speaking, but the topic was a little difficult. Anytime you talk to people about giving to the church for a big capital campaign there is a bit of skepticism. I got lots of positive feedback, and I felt like it went well, so I thank God for that. For those of you who didn't hear it, I basically said you need approach your giving from the perspective of joy. It is hard to be generous when your motivation is duty alone. I went on a little more than that, but you get the basic idea. Thanks to all of you for being so encouraging.

As for the rest of the family . . . Thursday night we have the Indian Princess Valentines Banquet, where I will be escorting my three lovely and beautiful daughters to an evening of dinner and bingo. It is always great fun. Friday night, Holly and Allison will be heading to Lubbock for a girls weekend. The will be shopping and attending a concert (Chris Tomlin, Casting Crowns and Steven Curtis Chapman). I know they will have a special time. A.J., Abby Claire and Annie will all be hanging out with me and I'm sure we will have a great time together.

That's about it for now. I hope you all have a great day!

Alan, I was so proud of you Sunday. There was such a wonderful feeling to realize that the next generation "gets it!" I love you, Mom
