When Your Heart Connects

This post is so important, that I didn't post it last week, because I didn't want it to get buried in all the giddiness brought on by the wonderful, dog days of summer bloggy giveaway. But, now all that is passed and put behind us.

Today, I beg you ... please ... stop what you are doing. Take one brief moment out of your busy day.

Go to this link and read A Father's Summer Trip Road Rules, by Paul Coughlin. I PROMISE (money back guarantee, because it is, after all, a freebie) that you will cackling peels of laughter, with tears rolling down your face. And then ... then ... just when you think you can blame the tears on all your laughter ... nay, nay, nay, I say ... your tears will turn into tears that only leak from your eyes when your heart has been truly touched by something that you fully connect to as a parent. You will enjoy it. (an advertisement box will come up when you click on the link -- just click on the "X" - close - box)

Then, come back and pour forth your thoughts in my comment section.

And just in case you're wondering... he is the famous Sandy Coughlin's husband ... okay ... Sandy is the famous Paul Coughlin's wife... Actually -- they are both famous in my book. They are authors/co-authors, and have been interviewed by Dr. Dobson. I recently won his latest book entitled No More Jellyfish, Chickens, or Wimps: Raising Secure and Assertive Kids in a Tough World and I can't wait to sink my teeth into it!

And ... if credentials like that don't make you famous, than surely, a blog like this, along with a tender, and gracious spirit as Sandy has, will!

We're not that great, really! ha ha.
I love that post that Paul did though. Anyone with kids will get a chuckle.
Happy Week to you!
Sandy
