~ Another "I haven't written an entry for a while" entry ~

Every so often, when browsing blogs, I come across an entry like this:

I haven't written for a while, but I'm writing now...

Now it is my turn. Here's why you should read my entry:

Because being a really good homeschool husband and dad is time consuming work. Not complaining, mind you, except that I admire and envy (in a sanctified way, of course) hard working moms and wives who manage to juggle parenting, teaching, and holding down the home front and living to tell about it!

So, inspired by your example, I pledge to do a better job of writing from the husband and father point of view, to hopefully encourage all of us, make us laugh, and challenge us.

If nothing else, to help my Darling Bride know what I'm thinking, because that's why I started this anyway.

Glad to see you're back blogging again! You're right, it IS hard to find the time, especially when you don't want to draw it away from family time. But may God bless your blog ministry!

Jun. 22, 2008 - we share a name

Posted by Jeffery L. Hoots

Hello Jeff, My name is Jeff Hoots and I am an Editor/ Publisher/ Graphic Designer & Co-Owner of a small newspaper in Bath County Kentucky in a little town called Owingsville. I am originally from Campbellsville, Kentucky, and a graduate of Campbellsville University. My paper is called the Bath County Banner and our paper can be seen at www.freewebs.com/thebcbanner. I have been doing a little research about the Hoots name and our ancestors. I am home sick from church tonight and found your website. I think it is very interesting to find someone else with the same name as I. E-mail me if you would like. The e-mails can be found on my website.

Just call me Jeff

Laura Ingalls Wilder always called her husband Almonzo "The Man of The Place." Anyway, hopefully writing about my (mis)adventures will encourage you along your journey! I'm a 41 year old, Husband, Homeschooling Father of 3, Businessman, Christian, etc., trying to apply 1 Thessaolians 5:11, "Therefore encourage one another and build each other up..." (and maybe a few laughs along the way...)
