Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it.

I'm Back

It's been a while since I've posted on my blog, so I figured I'd post a little update. We had a baby in December. She had some problems and so we had to have her flown to Salt Lake to Primary Children's Hospital. She was there for about 2 months. We recently got her home, but she had to be put back into the hospital after she contracted something, possibly RSV, that was causing her to have problems breathing. She's still currently in the hospital, and I'm at home taking care of our son.
It's been quite the experience. I've learned a lot in the last 3 months. Priorities change quite a bit when you go through something like this. I'm still not perfect, and I don't claim to have all my priorities perfectly in order, but I definitely appreciate things like a nice home, my health, family and friends, good food, and trying to help out others. It's amazing what being the recipient of some charity will do to your desire to serve.
I will probably not do any more book reviews. After reading some of them, it doesn't sound like I have anything really interesting to say about many of them. If I have opinions or original thoughts about some of them, I will try to abstract the thoughts and make some posts. I may try and keep a little update on what I'm reading, and things I'm planning on reading, but I will probably try to avoid boring "I liked this book" posts.
