Anyone who follows this blog at all knows how grateful to God I am for my children, for their spouses, and for my children’s children. It is a wonderful thing to read fat theological books about the covenant, but to actually see the promises of the covenant taking three-dimensional shape right in front of you …
Thanks to God
Please rejoice together with us. Just back from the hospital, where my youngest daughter Rachel delivered my two youngest grandchildren, a girl and a boy, joining the tribe of their two older sisters. The new babies are Chloe Lynn Geddes Jankovic (7 pounds 2 ounces) and Titus James Jankovic (7 pounds 9 ounces). That’s a lot …
And Way to the Right
A former student was hiking in Virginia, and snapped a photo of something that he thought was pretty funny. Must be thinking of the east coast Wilsons.
Where To Go on the Net When You”re Not Here
I mentioned already that Nancy’s blog has a new look, and that the girls are going to be contributing as well. That fun business has now begun. And I have been enjoying pandora.com a lot. It is a great way to find music you like that you didn’t know about. Check it out.
Fiendish Glee
It seems that computers can do a lot of things. This is, I believe, what is called a dented image. So here is the picture that you all can summon up whenever you think that I must have written a particular post with fiendish glee and mayhem in my heart. Suppose, to borrow an image …
Whoa
A little less than ten years ago, we had quite a thunderstorm head toward our house, coming from the southwest. It was a thunder-bumper of magnificent proportions. It was the kind of thing the Midwest would not need to be ashamed of. Our family started out sitting on the front porch, watching it come our …
Synchronized Corn on the Cob Eating
As many of you know, my daughter and son-in-law, and their five kids, have been at Oxford the last year, and just got home the night before last. We of course had to have ourselves a barbeque, along with a little synchronized corn on the cob eating in our front yard. And here is a …
Tintagel
Just a couple of quick pictures from the UK. As I have mentioned before, my oldest daughter and family have been at Oxford for the year while Ben has been studying there. And while Ben was with the NSA college tour, the rest of the troops recently went to Tintagel, where Geoffery of Monmouth placed …
Four Generations
God has blessed us with lots of family, in all kinds of directions, and we are of course very grateful for it. But there are interesting subgroups as well. This is a recent photo that was taken of our males with the surname of Wilson, four generations of them. Since God keeps covenant and mercy …
So Check Out the Story
Last week I mentioned that Nate has had a short story published in The Chattahoochee Review. For those of you interested in that story, “Conversations with Tod,” the folks there have now posted an excerpt on their website. It is not just the father in me that thinks this story is going places. Well, actually …
