COT:
Saturday night our dog passed away. Thankful for the many years of companionship. Also thankful that we were home, I was able to hold him as he took his last breath.
On Sunday during church I thought of the late Jim Valvano speech, Never Giveup. Coach says a full day when you accomplish (3) things: deep thought, brought to tears, and finding laughter. It was easy to find time for deep thought and prayer, which brought me to tears. So now I had to find a way to get laughter to complete my day.

COT: YHC shared a special moment with his 10-yr old who he hasn’t gotten to spend much time with lately. This past Saturday, as YHC was settling in on the couch for college football binge watching, 2.0 approached and asked to play a game. YHC had a split second decision to make, and hesitated (!) before saying “yes” to his 2.0. The result was a special moment that made YHC’s weekend (maybe his month). YHC’s message is to try saying “yes” more to the asks from your 2.0s to spend time with them, don’t hesitate, because these father-child moments won’t always be there in the future! Thank you men for posting in the gloom!
