Jesus is his homeboy

Jesus Van man stands by his Man

With toy soldier suit and marching band hat

Come rain or shine, hell or high water

Jesus Van man stands by his Man

happy birthday to my boss

A hummingbird once decided to make her nest on a brach just outside my office window. Days, weeks, months passed as I anxiously waited for baby hummingbirds to appear. But it was not to be, she moved on.

Her nest serves as a reminder to me that we're here on this earth for just a season. It may be a long season, it may be a short one, but it's the quality, not the quantity, that matters--it's the profound lasting impression one leaves upon others that counts. Today I celebrate John Finn, who turns 72. For his positive influence, I am truly grateful.

you make my heart sing...a Carol
