This is the last chance to make your vote count. Help your fellow American decide which spectacles look spectacular.

This guy is NICE!

I wonder at what point my kids will begin to take interest in reading this blog. I suspect that like most things that parents do, they will probably think it's weird or uncool. Perhaps the word 'cool' would be consider antiquated. Anyhow, I was raised hearing advice from my grandma and fortunately at the time of this writing, she is still around to give me more advice on life. There's an immense value in listening to advice rather than attempting to reinvent your personal wheel in life. The song "Humble and Kind" by Tim McGraw was fairly new when Joey was born and listening to it makes me wonder what this life holds for him. What will be his interested and hobbies? What challenges will he face? As I write this though, I am reminded of how fortunate I am to be part of his story.

You know there's a lot that goes by the front door
Don't forget the keys under the mat
Childhood stars shine, always stay humble and kind
Go to church 'cause your momma says to
Visit grandpa every chance that you can
It won't be a waste of time
Always stay humble and kind

Hold the door say please say thank you
Don't steal, don't cheat, and don't lie
I know you got moutains to climb but
Always stay humble and kind
When the dreams you're dreamin' come to you
When the work you put in is realized
Let yourself feel the pride but
Always stay humble and kind

Don't expect a free ride from no one
Don't hold a grudge or a chip and here's why
Bitterness keeps you from flying
Always stay humble and kind
Know the difference between sleeping with someone
And sleeping with someone you love
I love you ain't no pick up line so
Always stay humble and kind

Hold the door say please say thank you
Don't steal, don't cheat, and don't lie
I know you got moutains to climb but
Always stay humble and kind
When those dreams you're dreamin' come to you
When the work you put in is realized
Let yourself feel the pride but
Always stay humble and kind

When it's hot eat a rootbeer popsicle
Shut off the AC and roll the windows down
Let that summer sun shine
Always stay humble and kind
Don't take for granted the love this life gives you
When you get where you're goin'
Don't forget turn back around
Help the next one in line
Always stay humble and kind
