Our daughter, Angelique, gave birth to a beautiful baby boy, Michael Jonathan, Saturday, August 29, 1998 at 5:30 p.m.. Since her husband, John, is in Kitzen, Germany I had the opportunity to coach and watch Michael come into the world. God is so Awesome! To watch a tiny person come into this world - so cool!! You can see Michael at this address http://www.geocities.com/Heartland/Ridge/1483/mike.html

The following poem speaks from our heart, through written my someone unknown. I pray it will bless you all as well.

CHILDREN LEARN WHAT THEY LIVE

If a child lives with criticism
he learns to condemn.
If a child lives with hostility,
he learns to fight.
If a child lives with ridicule,
he learns to be shy.
If a child lives with tolerance,
he learns to be patient.
If a child lives with encouragement.
he learns confidence.
If a child lives with praise.
he learns to appreciate.
If a child lives with fairness.
he learns justice.
If a child lives with security,
he learns to have faith.
If a child lives with approval,
he learns to like himself.
If a child lives with acceptance and friendship,
he learns to find love in the world.
