Are you a little sleepy? Do your eyes refuse to stay open? Want to sleep, but can’t? Maybe you have a test you need to study for, a book report you need to finish, or you have one of those last-minute school projects that the kids are “doing” and you are simply “observing.” Tired of coffee?ContinueContinue reading “The Sleep Denyer”

Christmas Thoughts
What is the Christmas story? As a child growing up I remember very distinctly my dad requiring us to remove the baby Jesus from the manger of our nativity scene.

Learning From A Child
As many of you may know there was a small, insignificant football game played this past weekend. Well, at least it was insignificant from the Georgia fans perspective.
