Appreciating Fine Art
I have not been too interested in paintings or going to art museums (except I did always like to see the Tiffany glass work.) I will admit that I had my doubts about whether Jonathan would like the Van Gogh bits, simply because I had no appreciation for them myself. But I determined to show them... (More)

Dinnertime
Jonathan will now put his hands in ours when it's time to pray before dinner.Tonight we had quiche, and Jonathan worked hard at saying "quiche." He couldn't quite get the initial consonant sound, but he could say "eesh" or "sheesh." (More)

Barking, Shoveling, Singing
Jonathan likes to bark when he hears a dog barking. The other day when I was shoveling, he did a great job with his own little shovel, and we managed to stay out the whole time it took me to do the job. Last Friday, after grocery shopping, Jonathan carried a bag across the kitchen. When I... (More)

Christmas Adventures
Christmas Eve morning, Jonathan threw up. It turned out to be a stomach bug, so the performance repeated itself several times. We took a bath and napped in a chair. (He seemd to throw up more if he was lying down, so I held him upright and tried to sleep myself.) We tried to nurse, but it just... (More)

You Couldn't Say He Wouldn't Hurt a Fly
Jonathan and I were up on the third floor when the trash truck came by, and he likes to watch, so I brought him to the window. The third floor attracts and kills flies (not sure why) so it was no surprise to see a fly buzzing around the window.It was obviously sick because Jonathan was able to... (More)

Dermatologist and Philosophical Rambling
I went to a dermatologist this morning to have a mole removed and a small skin lump checked out. My referring doctor said this dermatology practice is the best in Pittsburgh. However, I really am getting more and more disillusioned with medical practice as we know it. As soon as I walked in, I... (More)

Crack Babies?
Someone off-handedly mentioned on the midwives list that so-called "crack babies" are really mis-named. While crack is certainly not the thing to do, medical research says that it isn't any worse than alcohol or tobacco. There are a number of articles, like this one that can be found from... (More)

5 Easy Steps to Bathroom Repair on a Sunday
Wake up at 3AM because you can't sleep. Notice that the shower has not drained from the day before. Plunge the tub to force the water through the slow drain. Eat breakfast and decide that now is as good a time as any. Start ripping up the floor at 4:30AM. Stop to go to church (try to... (More)

1 John 3:16-18
" By this we know love, that he laid down his life for us, and we ought to lay down our lives for the brothers. But if anyone has the world's goods and sees his brother in need, yet closes his heart against him, how does God's love abide in him? Little children, let us not love in word or talk... (More)

Jesus of Nazareth
My mother-in-law complained that in the Lord of the Rings, they use blank stares to portray goodness. Apparently, this is not a new trend, as in this movie (made in 1977), Jesus (except for when he is angry) does not ever have an expression on his face. Sometimes when he is asked questions or...

Courts Have Too Much Authority
I don't know the whole story ( this article is the first I have heard of it), but if you can believe the media, I guess "they" will be coming to get Jonathan too, since he has picked up something off of the floor and put it in his mouth. Horrors. Woman whose child was taken at birth fights to... (More)

Preliminary Hearing
I just got back from the courthouse. The judge upheld all charges. The prosecution added a fourth charge as well, that I didn't really understand -- It was a little hard to hear everything. There is an additional charge of endangering the welfare of a minor, I think having to do with... (More)

MS 150 Bike Ride
I haven't posted this here, and since occasionally some people actually read this, I might as well post it. I am going on a 150 mile bike ride on June 12-13 to raise money for multiple sclerosis. I am supposed to raise at least $200, so if you have a couple bucks to spare, please send some my... (More)

Continuing... in 2004
Hi all. Thanks for continuing to pray for us, and for letting us know that you haven't forgotten all this stuff. Unfortunately, I am still adding to this web page in 2004, who would have thought? I don't think I have written previously that the case has switched attorneys, sometime towards the... (More)
