My little brother, Davy wrote a poem about springtime… He gave me permission to share it with you.

“In the Spring” by David Aiken Codington, 8 years old
In the spring
We have fun in the sun,
And showers bring flowers,
And the leaves grow on the trees.
When we play hide and seek
We hide under the slide.
We talk on our [...]

What A Day
Friends, Romans, and family members… lend me your laughter.
In light of today’s events, I decided to write a humerous story to make everything that happened all a little more light-hearted… I hope you will all enjoy.
It all started with me hallucinating around 3:43 a.m. I dreamed I heard my roommate jump out of bed and shout, [...]

Discouragement
My voice still hasn’t shown signs of coming back… it’s been almost three weeks since I’ve had full use of it. I talked to my chorale director, and he said it wasn’t normal for it to take this long. He advised me to see a throat specialist soon. This is wearing on me. It’s discouraging [...]

Breathe
I can breathe again. My accounting exam was this afternoon at 2:00, and it’s finally done and over. It was so hard. Sixteen questions - you miss one, you’re screwed. I got to the last one… and I blanked. I had to make a statement of cash flows based on some numbers and information using [...]

Crunch Time
I’m studying for my accounting test all day today. I’ve got my test on Monday… it’s crunch time for me. I’ll write more soon, but for now, studying has got to come first. Remind me to tell you about Paul Tripp and relationships, spring break plans, getting a fever on top of being sick for [...]

Ramblings
So it’s been a few days since I’ve had the chance to write. I’m still sick… My chorale director thinks I have laryngitis. It’s been two and a half weeks, and I haven’t had a voice for the last week and a half. It’s been a humbling experience. I love to sing - whether that be [...]

The Three Sons
Three sons left home, went out on their own and prospered. Getting back together, they discussed the gifts they were able to give their elderly Mother.
The first said, “I built a big house for our Mother.” The second said, “I sent her a Mercedes with a driver.” The third smiled and said, “I’ve got you [...]

Confession and Fellowship
One of my good friends gave me a chapter out of the book Life Together. I don’t know who the book is by, but the chapter she gave me is entitled Confession and Communion. One of the first quotes that caught my eye was the following:Â
The sin concealed separated him from the fellowship, made all [...]

Peanut Butter M+M’s
Peanut butter m+m’s sound incredible right now (Hint, hint… my box number at school is 59, if anyone feels led to wipe away the cobwebs with some peanut butter goodness).
I’m so over studying. I’ve got a Business Management test in the morning. I feel more or less ready for it. I’ve studied and memorized the [...]

Antibiotics
I don’t know what antibiotics are or why they’re so special, but it sure took a lot of pain, sleepless nights, sore throats, and cough drops to convince the doctor to finally give me some of them. I walked into the doctor’s office this morning after being sick since two Sundays ago… I think this [...]
