Honor through helping
Ten years ago, I worked at the American Red Cross. I was a measly little marketing specialist, doing my part to help my chapter raise money and awareness so we could help local families impacted by fire and flood, and send out volunteers and supplies to communities hit by natural disasters. We trained folks in first aid and CPR and how to use an AED. We helped people be prepared, and even learn how to swim. Hurricanes and tornadoes and earthquakes were regular occurrences, and I was proud to work for a large, national organization that could quickly spin into action to help others while doing the daily work of making our communities safer.

Angels and demons
He’s taken to calling her “convict,” which I think is funny in that she’s never even been incarcerated…just, you know, verbally disciplined and now…written up.

Our lives, in bullet points
Hmmm. Okay. I think at this point brief (okay, maybe not so brief) bullet points are in order to get us all caught up.

Welcome to your new life
Yesterday, we went to a morning mass because it was Packet Sunday. This is the Sunday before school starts, and after the 9 a.m. and 11 a.m. masses parents can head over to the music room in the school to pick up information for the coming school year. I was very excited, and a little nervous, as I had been warned by veteran grade school parents that the packet is rather intimidating and requires hours of work and multiple checks.
