60 years ago today, I took my first breath on my own. Since then, this planet and many of the people on it, have taken my breath away. I was adopted, at 3 weeks old, by a wonderful young couple who gave me everything they possibly could. The most important of which are, a solid foundation of the Christian faith, a firm grasp on what it means to live a life with integrity and grace, and a realization that I’m no better than anyone else.

This has been a wild ride with several hard times and lots of good times. I’m excited to see what’s yet to come. God has blessed me with so much! It’s hard to think that there could be anything more.

So, with that, I head out to the shop to make things for others and revel in the life He’s given me.
