Still trying to digest last week. Accomplished three life goals in one week. We hiked the Grand Canyon rim to rim. We rode a mule around the rim. And we did a helicopter ride over the Canyon.

I actually cried when the helicopter flew over the Canyon. Can’t put into words the rush of worship I felt. I’m sure part of the emotional response was physical exhaustion. We hiked out of the canyon earlier that day. But I was absolutely overwhelmed by the grandeur of the Canyon. What a Creator!

One of my roles as a parent is to create memories. And one of the ways you do that is via shared experiences. This trip was more than a trip. It was part of the year-long discipleship program I’ve been doing with Parker. We still have a few more things to do before Parker accomplishes the three challenges I set out for him at the beginning of the year. But this trip was the reward. Proud of the way my son has grown this year.

Thanking God for some unforgettable memories!
