Early bird
It’s about 5:30 in the morning. Still dark outside, and the coffee won’t start brewing on it’s own until 7. I’m up this early because I have a men’s group that meets down the street at 6 on Fridays, where… Read More »Early bird

So Sebastian has started singing. (Notice how I haven’t updated my blog in six months, and I’m acting like that’s not the case? Classy, huh?) That’s a lie. He has always been a singer. But now that he’s learned a… Read More »Home
