Ben


Meet my nephew. Benjamin Nelson Lamborn. He decided to come more than a month early - he came the in the morning on Septermber 13th. I haven't met the little dude yet but I already have so much love for him. Mama and babe are doing fine - he is finally home with his family - and his siblings are loving him to pieces. I am so thankful for my family and the little ones that bring so much love! 

I can't wait to hold little Benny and smother him with hugs and kisses.

Thanks Jami!

There have been times in my life I have to pinch myself to determine if I am awake or dreaming. Life is wonderful.

I am currently in Vegas for a work convention. There are close to 3000 people here. It's a union conference. I'm inspired.

Last night may have been one of the most satisfying and gratifying nights of my life. Ill be able to write about specifics in the near future - specifics about my night and about the project I am working on - bit until then let me say that nothing makes me happier then being with like minded people who are determined to make the world a better place. There is so much good around us if we take the time to open our eyes.

Morning

Mornings have become my favorite part of the day. It has become normal for me to watch the city come alive and there is something soothing and reassuring about it.

I like waking up to the birds. I like morning dew. I like the quietness. I like the smell. I like cuddling with Harleyboy.

Naps

With this guy are my favorite

Spread thin

What a day!

It had unexpecting circumstance after another. My heart strings were pulled and my mind and imagination were stretched. I feel exhausted!

I am spread thin. Sometimes i feel overwhelmed. I felt overwhelmed today. My time, my resources, my couch- I need more of them. In the last year 8 people have stayed on my couch because they needed a place to go.

I feel needed. I am needed. I need me, my work needs me. Harley needs me. My family needs me. Certain friends need me. God needs me. I like to be needed. It gives me purpose.

I know I am a powerful person. I know I can make a difference in the world. I know I already have. Today I got an unexpected phone call from an unexpected person that presented an opportunity that would allow me to reach thousands. More to come. But look out.

My heart is thankful. I have had more love in my life than most people get in a lifetime. I have had so many adventures and achievements and heartbreak. And all of those things make me thankful.

And I get to see my family next week.
