my vote for pres? a family man honestly… just skimming to my first entry i remembered that article on child abuse and family structure that i had read and was “reenlightened”, to an extent, of the importance of family structure (a community, a support system, a place to learn…). I think we can say that we all long for this “family” wherever we are… a place that we can come crawling back to, sit comfortably in, hold hands with, and also be told to set the table and do chores (yea, i think discipline is a longing we have). Your family knows you best, and still loves you. That redemptive quality is what I wish we would see more… it kills me to see parents brutally strip their children of faith in themselves simply by calling them “stupid” for not knowing how to tie their shoes. I just want to see love in families… and maybe thats where our country’s leaders should be hoping for change… dunno

I want to pray for families more. No man is an island…

Deuteronomy 4:10 Remember the day you stood before the LORD ... when he
said to me, "Assemble the people before me to hear my words so that they
may learn to revere me as long as they live in the land and may teach them
to their children." 

How much has your family influenced you… or for that matter maybe how have you not let them influence you (for better or for worse)?

Lordy! I am such an HDFS major… apology, kinda!
