What to "ramble" about?!

Carolyn and I are blessed to have wonderful, talented, honest, creative, compassionate, and empathetic children. Their creativity started when they were very young and continues even today. Carolyn and I were going through old journals, college assignments, and notes written to ourselves. Last evening, we were reading some of those thoughts and stories. The experience was emotional, to say the least! We've also been reading "gifts" our children have created over the years; stories, poems, letters, plays, and much more. With their permission, I will be sharing some of them here. Someone may find them helpful, if not entertaining, or just plain boring. 

The first one I want to share was written by my son Chad. He is a man that I am very proud of, as I am of all of our children. Chad is a real estate agent. He is recognized by his clients as responsive and trustworthy. 

He pretty much learned the ropes and got licensed on his own. He started this as his second career.

His first career was with AMR where he started as an Ambulance restocker and made his way up the ladder to managing an AMR branch in Blue Springs, Mo. Chad was the first of our children to leave for a job in another state. He and his family eventually moved back to Colorado. They live not far from has.

They have loved and still love the mountains of Colorado, a family of hikers. He, and his wife are Subaru Fanatics. They have one of those hot-looking Subarus. They do almost all of their own maintenance on their vehicles. I think his wife, Wendfal, is the head mechanic. Wendfal is a certified personal trainer. Some of chads photos and videos are absolutely awesome. You can look him up on Instagram and YouTube. Clicking the Colorado link will take you to his YouTube channel. Some of my favorite trips to Canada included their son Wolfgang (quite the fisherman)! Their daughter Autumn is a graduate of a Culinary school and is an awesome pastry Chef! 

We are so very proud of all of you! Live and love your moments, your pool playing, your hiking, your baking, your Subaru Club, your wonderful Drone Camera pictures of hikes, keeping my wife physically fit, and so much more. Thank you all, hugs and kisses. And Chad, thanks for the writing you did so many years ago! It brings up so wonderful memories and looking forward to making new ones with the whole Chad and Wendfal Fahlenkamp family!
