As a Father of 4...maybe more, I can certainly place myself in the same position.<BR/><BR/>I treasure each moment with them, as they are fleeting moments. The hyperactivity, the temper-tantrums, the laughing, crying...all that however, pales in comparison to the opportunity and blessing I have to train and direct these young hearts and minds in the ways of the Lord.<BR/><BR/>Good post.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3870990.post-9105716072878715772008-11-14T12:43:00.000-06:002008-11-14T12:43:00.000-06:00I agree, good blog, and it does take you by surpri...I agree, good blog, and it does take you by surprise. I too worked as a nurse in ICU long enough to not take life for granted. But when a few years ago, I was ill with something they couldn't readily identify, I came face to face with my own mortality. I felt SO bad that I began to secretly think I was dying, and quietly began making preparations. All I could think of was my kids-without a mother, and a husband who would have to raise them alone. Shakes up your priorities, doesn't it? I agree with you about TV-it's mostly trash!Gapperhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12045791281973093318noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3870990.post-28134790035257033502008-11-14T10:56:00.000-06:002008-11-14T10:56:00.000-06:00Great blog!

I have never had one say, "I wish I would have done one more surgery," or "I wish I would have had one more trial," or "I wish I would have worked more overtime." Actually it is quite the opposite, almost always very sad. Usually the remarks are just like the Jericho mayor (which was one of my wife's favorite shows...hmmm), I wish I would have spent more time with the things that are important. <BR/><BR/>Thanks for your service to the Kingdom. I enjoy getting your Twitter updates and reading your blog. My Dad died 15 years ago, one month before my first child, John, his namesake, was born. There isn't a day that goes by where I think about him, wonder what he is doing in Heaven today, and hoping I am making him proud. I wrote on my blog a story one time about him. It is at: http://dkovaleski.wordpress.com/2008/05/03/dad/ if you would like to peruse (cool word!) it sometime.<BR/>Your Brother in Christ<BR/>David Kovaleski<BR/>Church At The GateAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3870990.post-82054549941262749022008-11-14T10:10:00.000-06:002008-11-14T10:10:00.000-06:00This is a very emotional post that really has me t...This is a very emotional post that really has me thinking.
