Well, it has been ages since I blogged. I have no idea if anyone even reads it anymore, or if they would want to! =) So much has happened since my last entry that I am a little unsure where to start. The past year has been a long journey; one that has been tiring and difficult, but one that has taught me a lot.
I am not going to use this forum to unpack the baggage of the last year. I am so grateful for my wife and my kids. I am grateful for my family. I am grateful for friends who have propped me up, and sometimes dragged me along. I am grateful for people who REALLY know me and who believe in me.
I am going to stop here for now. I am in one of those contemplative moods where my thoughts could easily cause me to say too much. All I want now is peace. Peace that comes in the form of kisses from my wife. Peace that comes in the form of smiles and giggles from my kids. Peace… wonderful peace.
Just for the two people who may read this, I am attaching a recent picture of the Owens clan. This was taken in the back yard of our home in Cleveland. We had been enjoying the fall by playing in a gigantic leaf pile. For the whole story, check out Kelly’s blog at www.kellyreflects.blogspot.com. 
I love you, Kelly, Belle and Ashton!
I love you. I think you know your kids love you. There will be peace.
