it's worth repeating that you become like those you surround yourself with...
I am so thankful for great parents, patient mentors, honest (yet loving) friends, "fired up" young adults and students. Everywhere I look, I am challenged by those I surround myself with to be all that God has called me to be...
most of the time i am surrounded by my 3 children, who can in a span of 10 minutes, inspire me, motivate me, frustrate me, bless me, and crack me up!! never a dull moment! annie inspires me to live life to the fullest, kaitie teaches me to take risks, and nash reminds me to SMILE!!
I also hope that those whose circle of influence I am in feel that I bring life and support and love and joy to their lives. I hope that Christ living in me inspires others to be the man or woman God has destined them to be.. i want to be a life-giver, and not an energy-drainer!
So, who are you surrounding yourself with?? And what kind of influence do you have on others?

I too believe very much that you become what you think about....so I have a hard time explaining that when I was in middle and high school I used to think about girls all the time. But grew up to be a boy. Somebody help! Love to a wonderful daughter Amanda....Dad
