It is very hard for me to believe that 7 years ago today we became parents. Sidney Michael Locke was given to us by God on October 9th, 2000. He is a wonderful son and such a caring big brother.
As I look back over the 7 years we have had to watch Sid grow, I realize that Lori and have grown as well. We have a more healthy relationship as husband and wife, we turned out to be pretty good parents, and most of all our relationship with our heavenly father is far better.
I truly believe this is a result of being parents. Isn't it funny how God can use the innocence of a child to teach grown-ups life lessons. I personally have learned so much from Sid and I look forward to learning so much more. We are all a work in progress, and our tomorrows are promised to be better than our today's, and I can't hardly wait.
For the parents - cherish your children as they are truly a gift from God!
For the children - be patient with your parents, because we don't always get it right!
And God give both of us the wisdom to handle each other!
Have a Blessed Day!!!

My name is Michael Locke and I am the mad mind behind what you read here. I represent a body of christians who are looking for an encouraging word to combat the daily struggle. We are not and do not claim to be perfect, just doing what we can to live for Jesus.
