1.26.2015



weekend recap:
we took the boys to church.
we had a family brunch around the table.
we went to see 'american sniper.'
{enter pause here}
yes, it was 'r' rated.
yes, we knew that before we bought the tickets.
yes, we spoke with several people who already saw it
before making our 'colin' decision.
yes, there was a bad word or two in the movie but
remember he takes the school bus everyday.
{enter another pause here}
but this is history.
but this is real life.
but this is reality.
but this is what we don't see on tv everyday.
but this is what our men do for our freedom.
but this is why we are proud to live in this country.
but this is why we wanted the boys to see it.
-
the movie theater was so silent after it ended.
the movie lived with you long after the popcorn was gone.
the movie still provides deep thoughtful questions
from the boys.
the movie was outrageously memorable.
