Parenting with Boundaries

Elise and I went to a seminar on parenting called "Boundaries in Parenting" last week. Dr. John Townsend spoke and it was excellent. Of course, now we think we have this parenting thing licked! We are over-achievers, one must admit...

Preparing Keiffer Part II

Knowing that our dogs await an unsuspected awakening to true "dogdom" (once we get Mia), I took to writing a little book entitled, "Keiffer Becomes a Dog." This is a short story in which I attempt to prepare Keiffer for Mia's arrival but first must convince her that she is of canine descent. The conversation goes poorly...The little book is dedicated to Mia, using the same inscription heading as this blog: "dedicated to our daughter, Mia Grace Deeble, whom we alrady love, deeply cherish, and long to know. About you, my sweet, God whispers, 'She is mine!'"
