Breakfast With John

John W. has been a friend for years. We get together for breakfast three or four times a year to stay in touch. Our families have been through some of the same stages, so we compare notes about what our kids are doing (and how we are doing). His are all adopted.

We are different in many ways but there are some substantial commonalities. We both served as officers in the USCG (we didn’t know each other at that time). Both of us committed our lives to following Christ as adults and we are both “family men.”

This morning it was interesting to hear about a son who’s at Army boot camp and a daughter who’s at Word of Life Bible Institute...discussing the challenges and rewards of helping our children enter adulthood.
