Baby Dominic is finally here and Carlos is a first time Dad! After being a week overdue we are so excited that he is here safely! Carlos shared that he cried three times before the baby was even born! Once when they first got into the hospital room because he realized that he was in the place where he would meet his son, the second time was when his wife’s water broke, and the third… … Continue reading
With all the crazy things going on in the world, it’s easy to ask, “Where is God in all this?” Rough days, hard seasons, and tragedies are something we would never wish on ourselves, but they do remind us that this is not meant to be our home. Even when life is easy, there are moments when our soul feels like something is missing. We were not made for this world. We were created for more.… … Continue reading

I love what Pastor Voddie Baucham had to say when it came to loving your wife as you’re biblically commanded to. Pastor Baucham said, “It is absolutely inexcusable for a man who follows Christ to stop loving his wife.” Remembering that love is an act of the will, that it is a choice, has been pivotal in my marriage. Love is not devoid of emotion and neither is it led by it, it is accompanied by emotion… … Continue reading
My wife loves this “things” jar in our bathroom. But all it does is literally sit there empty, all the while desperately yearning to be filled with something, anything! Or maybe I give it those emotions since I don’t understand why it just sits there empty. “It’s a part of the decor” she says as she walks on by. So I smile, pretend to understand and begin brushing my teeth. But today this little empty… … Continue reading
A few weeks back I wrote an article called “The 7 Things Men Hate About Living With Women” and lets just say, the floodgates were opened and the ladies have chimed in with the things they can’t stand about living with men. While most women said things like, “We couldn’t live our lives without our men, they help make life a little easier” or “Thank God for my Husband who handles all the dirty work… … Continue reading
With Valentines Day fast approaching the world is chatting up a storm about love. A word that over time has lost some of its deep meaning. “Love” is just as quickly tied to a new pair of shoes as it is to a relationship that has lasted decades. Yet, next season when the new line of shoes comes out, the word “love” is no longer attached to those shoes you originally feel in love with.… … Continue reading
Every year Joy predicts the outcome of the big football game by smashing an egg on her head. Every year Joy has been correct until now! This year she chose a Panthers egg and it was hard boiled, meaning that the Panthers would win. Unfortunately, her mistake means that she must get a raw egg smashed on her head as punishment. However, Carlos decided to be gracious and give her a chance to get out… … Continue reading
Last year, against her will, Joy was victorious at predicting the results of the big football game by smashing an egg on her head. We thought she should try it again! Half of the eggs presented to her are raw and half of them are hard boiled. If the egg she chooses is raw then that team will lose. The best part is that if her prediction is correct then Carlos gets an raw egg on his… … Continue reading
Feeling forgotten can be devastating. Their eyes pierced through me as if to reach into my soul. As I walked past these poor children, I was shocked that some of them only wore underwear and had no clothes or shoes to speak of. They watched our group of white Americans walk straight up to their neighbor, Vivian’s, front door. Vivian is a 7 year old girl who is a part of Compassion International in Ghana, Africa. As soon… … Continue reading
