My 12-year old daughter busted in my room calling for help. Her brother was outside fending off two cats that had a baby bird surrounded. I dashed out, grabbed the shovel and actually konked (lightly) one of the cats on the head as it was about to pounce. There the bird was in the middle […]

May 10, 2011 by
(My Twitter conference speech conclusion. Part 1: click here) 7. And then now finally, probably the one “connection” I remember most is Jennifer Johns (@goingbyfaith in California).
