Your Happy Life

Superkid, as your commander, I’d like to show you how to have a happy life, regardless of your situation. People sometimes forget that happiness doesn’t depend on circumstances. They can be in a tough situation and still be happy. Or things can be going great, yet they are sad.  …


FIRST Grade

Back to school? No. Homework assignment? Maybe. What are we talking about, Commander Kellie? Keep reading, Superkid.   Let’s talk about firsts. Dictionary.com defines FIRST:   Before all others or anything else in time, order or rank Before some other thing, event The first part; first member of a series…


Who Do You Look Like?

  Funny thing, Superkids. A few months ago I showed you a picture of me digging for diamonds. Guess what everyone thought; they thought it was my 6-year-old daughter, Emily! How can I look like a 6-year-old? What’s funny is that people usually think kids look like their parents, not…


Growing Home

Last month, we looked at how we handle FIRSTS, and I left you with the mention of first base. I told you we would talk about baseball.   I’m no expert, but even without knowing much about the game, most people know you have to reach first base before you…


Treasure Buddies

Want to know a little known fact about me?   I am a treasure hunter! I always have been.   When I was a kid, wherever I was I always looked for hidden treasure. And usually, I would find something amazing, even if I was the only one who thought…


SMILE! JESUS LOVES YOU!

When I was your age, people said that a lot.   What people today call emojis, we called smiley faces, and they always went along with, “Smile, Jesus loves you.”   What a simple thing to say. And maybe people said it without thinking about the power of those four…


Bestie for Life

Superkid, last month I offered you the opportunity to know Jesus (and the Father) in a deeper way. I believe I heard you shout, “YES!” So, this month I want to open that door a little wider.   We learned last month to look differently at correction, and now we…


Come to Jesus

Hey, Superkid! Here we are in February already, and 2017 is ticking away. I know Jesus has some amazing plans that He wants to become reality for us. Last month we talked about that “Come to Jesus” meeting many parents feel the need to gather the family for. How did…
