A Busy But Peaceful Life

July 18th, 2006,

I’ve been busier than I would like lately. In addition to the test development work that I do, I have some volunteer responsibilities, including local bicycle and pedestrian advocacy, church responsibilities, and my new role as president of our townhome association. Then of course there are family responsibilities and the constant demands of parenthood.

The latter has great ups and downs, of course. I must report one cute comment by our two-year-old daughter. She was playing with some coins, and I asked her, “What do we do with money?” “Put it in our pockets,” she said.

I’ll take a busy but peaceful life over the war and civil strife that plagues the Middle East, including the ongoing fighting in Iraq and the escalating war between Israel and Hezbollah. I will keep the people of that region in my prayers.
