Caleb's First Haircut





On Caleb's mom's birthday, he went to the hairdresser with her and got his very first haircut. He wasn't too sure about the whole thing, but his caution soon turned to tears. But was quieted wheen daddy held him in his lap and mama fed him Cherrieos.   Gramma's big boy  looks even more handsome now.


When I read the wisdom of our founding fathers I marvel at their good sense.  These men went to school when morals were taught along with facts.  Not much of either seems  to be taught these days. 

It is a shame that we now teach our kids to Just Do It instead of Consider the Consequences.

-Patrick Henry, speech in the Virginia Convention, 1775

"It is natural to man to indulge in the illusions of hope. We are apt to shut our eyes against a painful truth -- and listen to the song of that syren, till she transforms us into beasts. Is this the part of wise men, engaged in a great and arduous struggle for liberty? Are we disposed to be of the number of those, who having eyes, see not, and having ears, hear not, the things which so nearly concern their temporal salvation? For my part, whatever anguish of spirit it might cost, I am willing to know the whole truth; to know the worst, and to provide for it." -
