Our Perspective Shapes Our Perception

As I read my daily devotional, the author used the phrase “diddly squat.” The two words just jumped off the page at me. Just this week, I heard someone else use this term. I will often say, I don’t know diddly squat about that or that doesn’t amount to diddly squat. Diddly squat is an […]

The Best Is Yet To Come

Happy New Year, friends! A new year, a fresh start is upon us. But before we jump into 2024, let’s refresh ourselves with the topics that resonated with you this past year. What better way to start fast in the new year than to build on what we have already learned together?  It’s not surprising […]

Shopping Takes Grit

Just look at our little warrior grandson, Porter! 😂 This shopping spree was a battle of epic proportions — Porter vs the department store. It’s a drama we’ve all starred in!  (CeCe who gets stronger by the store, has driven me to this point on many occasions.)  Porter, like he’s auditioning for a melodrama, showcases […]

How to Calm Down Quickly

We saw quite the spectacle on the third day of our fly fishing escapade on the mighty Missouri River. Two revelers, clearly having started their party brightly and early, were making quite the ruckus on the boat ramp. One of our newfound friends was clutching an almost empty wine bottle as if it were a […]

Simple and Direct

“Make your cast directly overhead,” says our fishing guide after my feeble side-arm cast was blown back in my face with the 25 mph wind. “I know it’s counterintuitive with the wind blowing, but if you cast directly overhead, your cast will go further and straighter in this wind, and the flies will land softer […]

God Has a Purpose for Each of Us

CeCe and I are so blessed to be on one of our bucket list trips this week.  We are on day two in Alaska as we sit beside a blazing campfire on the Kenai River.  Now if you are from Mississippi or anywhere in the southeast in August, the thought of the campfire alone is […]

Happy Completed Her Dash, Great Time To Think About Ours

Sadly, CeCe lost her mom, Ruth (Happy) Cole, 84, on August 7th. You may have met Happy in some of our past stories, as she was quite the personality. Her nickname, Happy, is one that was well-earned and deserved. Happy lived her life, her dash (our time in this life — our legacy and how […]

Something Is Wrong With This Elevator

Placing the Hyatt Regency room card on the card reader in the elevator, my good friend and mentor, Sam Allred, steps on the elevator on the 32nd floor and selects the fifth floor for the gym.  Sam is getting a quick workout in before he helps kick off Upstream Academy’s HeadWaters Conference in Denver, CO.  […]

Time to Clear Out the Junk

Dinner is almost ready, and here comes CeCe for what I know will be her junk food snack binge right before I have dinner ready.  She will go nearly all day with very little nourishment, and just when dinner is close to ready, CeCe will come in and open five or six things and start […]

Leading and Loving Intentionally

We have just taken the redeye back home from Vegas so we can be home a day sooner than we had planned. Unfortunately, CeCe’s mom, Happy, had a stroke while we were gone and is in the hospital. We drive straight from the airport to the hospital so we can be there when the neurologist […]
