Monday...Birthdays...BBQ's and The Time Warp...

Where does time go? This weekend just flew by without even saying hello.

We had a family BBQ on Friday night with a number of family members in attendance and had a surprise birthday party for the Mother-in-Law Saturday to prepare for...and Sunday had a five hour roundtrip drive to celebrate a Brother-in-Laws birthday party too... It almost feels like we didn't even get a day off...This coming weekend said Brother-in-Law is getting married and I have a national sales meeting to attend. Michelle and Boys are heading down south and I am heading north...another weekend of work...work...work...I need a break...

I think that to take time we have to make time. Time is not our friend in all circumstances. Time can become our nemesis if we let it. Making time is something we all need to do. A weekend here or there, stealing away for a few private moments with family is important. The job, church and others will always be there but our family won't. The kids grow up and move out and what memories will they cherish if we never stop long enough to make memories for them?

Take some time this week or weekend to make sure your family knows they are important in your life. Take your wife out on date, take the kids to a park or do something they enjoy doing. Make the Time Warp work for you and not against you. The time spent will be worth the cost when you add up the values of what your family is worth to you against what time takes from you.

Just some thought... Be Encouraged!!
