End of an Era: Last First Day of School

This morning I took my last first day of school photo. Milo heads off to his senior year, and thus begins the year of final moments.

Here’s the requisite kindergarten to senior year comparison:

Kindergarten: 2014 Senior Year: 2026

I think my favorite part of that kindergarten photo is Milo’s hands—constant motion. That’s how excited he was (and always, I guess).

Senior year? I’m just lucky he

I really liked this one. What a profound sense of found family and wondering how this could possibly work out and being really impressed when it did. To be fair, I've got some lingering questions about codependency, but that didn't get in the way of ...more

Wow, Jen Hatmaker is a lot. There are parts of this book I loved and parts of it that earned an eye roll. It's one of those surviving a failed marriage memoirs, though if you're looking for the tea on how her marriage of 26 years fell apart, she's sh ...more

This is a story of surviving genocide in Burundi in the 1990s, following Deo. It's hard to tell a genocide story without completely overwhelming the reader, and this one attempts a non-linear approach, but I think it falls flat. The first third was b ...more

A literal second chance love story. I love how the romance genre can just play with the second chance concept and use it as a device, barely bothering with the details of how it works.

Quotes by Kevin D. Hendricks  (?)
Quotes are added by the Goodreads community and are not verified by Goodreads. (Learn more)

“The whole point of all this reading is to learn and grow. So, finally, talk about what you read. Think and reflect on the things you read. Process the ideas. Jot down the questions. Books stimulate thought, so take advantage of it and write it down.”
― Kevin D. Hendricks, 137 Books in One Year: How to Fall in Love With Reading

“When the song of the angels is stilled, When the star in the sky is gone, When the kings and princes are home, When the shepherds are back with their flock, The work of Christmas begins: To find the lost, To heal the broken, To feed the hungry, To release the prisoner, To rebuild the nations, To bring peace among brothers, To make music in the heart. Howard Thurman, the late author, professor and civil rights leader”
