It is an amazing blessing to watch your children’s talents and interests blossom and grow right before your eyes. It doesn’t matter if they’re three, thirteen, or thirty-three.
My son, Josh, has penned a trilogy entitled
Camelot Fallen…Rise, Reign, and
Fall (due out by the end of the year). (The first two are already available on Amazon.com.) It is based on the author’s interpretation of the life of King Arthur. The telling of a good story is when it plays like a movie in your mind’s eye. The cinematic imagery Josh paints throughout the series is captivating. The story, compelling.
The author, this man, was a little boy…just yesterday. He loved books. All kinds of books. As a toddler, he would sit in his little rocker listening to cassette tapes of his grandfather reading stories to him…for hours.
We watch our little ones choose
this over
that as they grow. We guide. But we don’t push. They each have a path, and we have the privilege as parents to equip them for the journey. Their journey.
Enjoy the journey.
“Train up a child in the way he should go,
And when he is old he will not depart from it.”
Proverbs 22:6
