This is one of those messages that I, as a parent to two young daughters who are very, very different from the rest of the children they go to school with, definitely need to remember and be able to relate to them when they need to hear it most.

This is not just an important parenting lesson, but it's an important lesson in humanity that we need to accept into our lives.

Being different is OK. Being being bullied or singled out as different is only in the hearts of those who are being overwhelmed by their own struggles.

No matter how bad it feels, young ones, you really are not all that different from so many others... and IT WILL GET BETTER as you get older.

Our house was robbed today - no one was hurt!

For those who live in the Knoxville / Loudon, TN area:  Today @ 11:30AM, the guy pictured below broke into our home, tossed the place around, & robbed us.  This is actually the 2nd time our home has been robbed.  The good news is that, this time, we had added security cameras.  :)

The police have been super helpful in working with us and making sure that we are secure.  However, I would like to help them find out who broke into the house.  Have you seen this guy before?  Do you know his name?  If so, send me an email at robbed@nathanblevins.com.  

If you live in the area, please help me spread the word & share this post!  I want to have my peace of mind back (in some portion, at least).    Thanks! #Knoxville   #LenoirCity   #Tennessee

Strangely, I feel SO guilty for really liking this mashup.

Strangely, I feel SO guilty for really liking this mashup. Dare I admit that I've listened to it at least a dozen times in the last few hours?
