Bruised… not Broken
When I was younger, I was picked on by most of my classmates and peers. Weird right? Considering how awesome I am now, lol. (I don’t want this to become a sad story so I needed to add a bit of humor before I got into the grit of this story.) One day in the […]

Read moreLet’s Connect with the Youth
Last week I volunteered with the Sheriff’s department for ‘Read-a-Thon’. An event hosted annually that is geared toward reading for our youth. While I was there I encountered a Kindergarten aged boy. He was very shy when I asked him if he wanted me to read to him. He slowly shook his head ‘yes’ […]
