I love how little kids make friends... They meet for the first time on a playground, 'Hey, you want to play tag?' - 'Sure!' - and now they're best friends.

Between the years of 1978 to 1991, Jeffrey Dahmer murdered 17 young men. I'm sure most of you remember the news stories. The details of his crimes were absolutely horrific. He was sentenced to 15 life sentences. While in prison, a man reached out and sent him a Bible study. He was then introduced to a local minister, ...

Before I dismiss the kids, I want to start with a video - "Dad Battle"

I recently heard a comedian say he used to work at the 'steal department' of the grocery store - that's what he called the 'self checkout lane'. Years back I shared about how I accidently 'stole' a tube of hair gel in the bottom of my cart from Target, but then took it back to customer service to sheepishly pay for it. Apparently my life of crime ...
