Skim Mocha No Whip. Random musings on life, love and the pursuit of success . one four dollar coffee at a time. Thursday, December 24, 2009. The Gift of Something That Matters. That he wanted was so short, we had to encourage him to look through some toy catalogs to lengthen it some. He seemed entirely content with receiving a couple of toys, as long as he could spend the holiday time with family. I've always tried to give the gift of something that matters. Tomorrow, as I hear the handle turn on my son'...

Skim Mocha No Whip: A Critical Step Forward
http://skimmocha.blogspot.com/2010/10/critical-step-forward.html
Skim Mocha No Whip. Random musings on life, love and the pursuit of success . one four dollar coffee at a time. Wednesday, October 20, 2010. A Critical Step Forward. Years ago, I was hiking the Bearfence Mountain Trail. In Shenandoah National Park. About halfway through the short 1.2 mile hike, the trail winds through a rock scramble where only white paint trail markers and the occasional cairn mark the way. Glad you survived. :).

Skim Mocha No Whip: Reflecting Our Reaction
http://skimmocha.blogspot.com/2010/08/reflecting-our-reaction.html
Skim Mocha No Whip. Random musings on life, love and the pursuit of success . one four dollar coffee at a time. Sunday, August 1, 2010. Today while playing baseball with a friend in our neighborhood park, the kid inadvertently got too close to a nest of ground bees and had one land on his face. He did everything he's been told to do: don't panic, don't swat. The bee still stung him, right in the corner of his eye. Inspiring. Did you/how did you tell him how you appreciated his thinking on this? Eric Grig...

Skim Mocha No Whip: Watching Him Choose a Reflection
http://skimmocha.blogspot.com/2010/04/watching-him-choose-reflection.html
Skim Mocha No Whip. Random musings on life, love and the pursuit of success . one four dollar coffee at a time. Saturday, April 10, 2010. Watching Him Choose a Reflection. As my son has grown, I've been fascinated by what things hold his interest for extended periods of time. Kids of his age are notoriously attention-deficient, so it always catches my eye when he spends a lot of time investigating a new topic or working on a project. Today, we visited the The Children's Museum of Indianapolis. In what am...

Skim Mocha No Whip. Random musings on life, love and the pursuit of success . one four dollar coffee at a time. Friday, June 26, 2009. I Read the Obituaries Today. I read the obituaries today. Page B-4 of the Champaign-Urbana News-Gazette. What is it about celebrity that infatuates us so? Why haven't thousands of people sobbed along makeshift sidewalk grottoes for Keyth and Tami? Did "John Shedelbower RIP" appear even once as a Twitter feed? I cannot help but feel we have this all wrong. But what I have ...

Skim Mocha No Whip: The Looks on His Face
http://skimmocha.blogspot.com/2010/03/looks-on-his-face.html
Skim Mocha No Whip. Random musings on life, love and the pursuit of success . one four dollar coffee at a time. Sunday, March 28, 2010. The Looks on His Face. Yesterday was one of those magical days with the kid. It doesn't always happen this way. If he's of the mood to just hang out at home and play video games, we tend to both hole up in our own electronic shells and let the day escape us. I don't like letting these opportunities pass uneventfully, but as most parents will attest, forcing. My son seeme...

Skim Mocha No Whip: Focusing on the Imperfections of a Life in Progress
http://skimmocha.blogspot.com/2010/04/focusing-on-imperfections-of-life-in.html
Skim Mocha No Whip. Random musings on life, love and the pursuit of success . one four dollar coffee at a time. Wednesday, April 28, 2010. Focusing on the Imperfections of a Life in Progress. A while back, I was photographing one of my son's scouting events and a scout leader stopped to make sure that I didn't miss my son's part. I assured him that I'd be there for my son, and motioning toward my camera lens, told him that "this is how I see life.". The moments that show the imperfections of a life in pr...
