Jules, your unconditional love for Brindsley is fueling one happy, confident, loving young man. I'm sure it is no different for your daughter. A Mother's unconditional love is the essential foundation for a healthy, thriving life. And as a Father of two precious daughters, I believe the same about a Father's love. Parents may not love their child's behavior at times but they unconditionally love their being. We must always communicate that to them through out our lives....

Thank you so much for this Clark. I truly hope so. I'm blessed to be their mom. I always wanted a son and daughter just like them. :)

Enjoy your weekend coming up.

I was pumped to read/hear of both your 5K experience as well as your writing, Brindsley. An old expression says, “The apple doesn’t fall far from the tree.” I’m not calling you an apple or your mom a tree, but I feel certain you see where I’m going with this. ;-)

I enjoyed seeing your family’s costumes from last year! What is your plan for tonight? A form of creativity in my estimation.

Have you ever raced in fallen snow? Up to your ankles or deeper? Or in super cold temperatures? Just probably not in Halloween costumes.

Trick or Treat!

Thank you so much Gary for listening/reading. :) I will be sure to tell Brindsley. He is dressing up as a Jedi from Star Wars (obi wan kenobi) and Delaney Anne Wilson (Christian singer) It's going to be 80 degrees here! I don't remember a halloween ever being this warm. Enjoy your day and hope you get a few treats.

I love this! I remember when Brindsley was running with us at Highland Forest. He was talking about his stories and all these ideas he had. I was so impressed and fascinated. I can’t wait to read them. Happy Halloween 🎃
