Bad Daddy
Big UH OH last night in my adventures in Fatherhood...
I went to pick up Jay from a restaurant where my wife was having a meeting for her Direct Sell business, Partylite. Jay was ready to go, and they were really starting the meeting, so my wife, Meredith, and I did not get a chance to discuss any of the details for the evening.
I grabbed the diaper bag and my son, and we took off for home! Well, we were traveling down 11E and Jay seemed a little frustrated that he was in his car seat. However, at almost 10 months old, what do you expect? He has bee wanting to crawl around and explore more and more each day. So, we get into Greeneville, and the two of us decide to do a little shopping for Mommy...especially since the BIG DAY is coming up on Sunday.
He's still awake, and really he was so excited to get out of the car. So, we went and found Mommy some good gifts. We went straight home after that. I changed him. We fed the dogs. We walked the dogs, and we were getting settled in when Mommy called.
"Hey, is Jay still awake?"
"Yeah, he's a little restless." (But that's normal when he's with Daddy alone...he like to stay up a bit more.)
"Well, what did you feed him?"
(BIG, LONG, PAUSE....)
"I didn't...I thought that.."
And the rest is history! I forgot to feed my son dinner!!!! Now, he nursed, but I forgot to give him solids!!! I feel so bad as a father. I didn't provide for my son. Not a good thing.
However, he's fine, and made it through the night...Needless to say, I gave him a really good, large, and filling breakfast.

Cinderella
You might have recently heard the latest "story song" from our good friend, Steven Curtis Chapman. If you haven't, please make sure you have a tissue handy, because I have seen more people BOO-HOO at what an incredible song this is!
As a matter of fact, it has become such a phenomenon at WCQR, that I received a phone call from a younger generation listener that said this:
"Hi...I was wondering if you would play Cinderella every other song....(she left her phone number and name)...Please don't call, just play it every other song. Amen. I mean, Bye!"
That's soooo awesome! I was hoping that I could add the audio for you, but that is not possible at the moment.
Thing is, she was so convincing that I did it today.
May all your dreams come true!

SPRING SHARATHON
It has been an amazing two and a half days! We can't thank you, and God enough for the miracle that has taken place at WCQR. We have met our $250,000 Sharathon goal, and now we are asking for a bit of help for a few things that were not included in this budget. They are special needs for this ministry. One of those things is a new van wrap--and the following video is the reason why.
If you can lend your support, please give us a call at 1-888-477-5676 or visit www.wcqr.org
Thanks again,
Chalmer

The Great Illinois Corn Flake
I promise that's what they are calling it...although, it really is a Frosted Flake. Two sisters posted the auction for the oddly shaped cereal novelty, and then...capitalism/entrepreneurship at its best.
I have to say that America must be completely infatuated with weird, bizzare, and unique things...and some people have more money to throw around than they should. :) This is obviously another great argument for that.
Because what started out as something kinda funny, and neat has now turned into something just gigantic, with a gigantic price tag.
Take a look at the eBay auction that started at $50...and will end on Thursday. Someone is going to pay more than 200k for a FROSTED FLAKE!!!!
Click Here for the Auction
Wish I had found it first. HAHAHA! :)
