Playing Hooky

Let’s get this out of the way first off, shall we?

I am not perfect.

In fact, I am the most imperfect person I know, mostly because I know myself better than I know most anyone else. Not a perfect man, not a perfect Christian. Not a perfect husband. And I am most assuredly not a perfect father.

And now that all of that’s out of the way, I feel better telling you what I did with my son the other night.

I taught him how to play hooky.

Yes, I know. Not a good thing. But I did so with only the purest of intentions. Cross my heart and hope to die.

To hear what my intentions were and why I feel so strongly about them, please follow me to High Calling Blogs. And remember — Judge not, lest ye be judged.

    You never fail to make me smile and think…and, much too often, cry a little. Thanks for this!

    I love that the preacher said he wished he’d taken more days off. I don’t ever want to forget to take time to spend with my dudes. Glad you’re doing the same.

    I like the preemptive talk before the story!
