On the way out the door this morning, the boys were quizzing me about scholarships. I told them what I knew and encouraged them just to focus on school and not worry about college yet, but that led to a discussion of bad life choices.

As God would have it, carpool line was backed way up due to the rain, so we had an extra long time to talk about smoking, drinking alcohol, and doing drugs. It was one of those times I couldn’t have prepared for if I had tried.
