We Are Alive! May 12th, 2024 Yardwork
Today is "Mothers' Day" in the US and because of the memorial, my sister was in town from Florida. This made for a perfect mother's day brunch. We all enjoyed a late lunch of egg casserole and bagels with cream cheese.
Afterwards, I got the lawns mowed - by that I mean my front and back yard and my parent's front and back yard. They're fairly small, so it only takes an hour or so. With the weather so nice, pop on a podcast and get mowing.
It's always so satisfying seeing a freshly mowed lawn. Meanwhile, my very pregnant wife is in the garden, getting things ready.
The backyard is getting smaller and smaller, as our garden gets bigger and bigger. :-)
Pulled a lot of overgrown ivy, bunch of thistles and dandelions, and other weeds. Little by little, day by day we're getting our garden and landscaping back to where it should be for the summer.

Bless the Most High!
Teach Your Children Liberty from Sin
We encourage parents to teach their children principles of Godliness, beginning with the Word and an understanding who God is and what His Son has done to form a relationship with us.
No one can lay a foundation other than the one already laid, which is Jesus Christ. If anyone builds on this foundation using gold, silver, precious stones, wood, hay, or straw, his workmanship will be evident, because the Day will bring it to light. It will be revealed with fire, and the fire will prove the quality of each man’s work. 1 Corinthians 3:11-13
Teach Your children Liberty from Tyranny
Second to this is the principle of self-determination and freedom, lest we loose the ability to teach our children the first principle in future generations.
Our children read the Tuttle Twin books, specifically to learn libertarian principles, which most people learn later in life. These books are useful for our family, and yours, to teach children concepts that seem complicated, but are made simple in these books. I am an affiliate for Libertas Publishing, your purchase will help our family grow financially.

Similarly, people whose mother has passed away know that life without a mother is very sad and troubled, and those who have a mother alive should appreciate her.
Absolutely true, my friend.

Hey @ironshield! Back in June 2023 you used inLeo to publish a couple of long form articles.
Since then, our user interface has gotten a lot better, maybe you want to try it out again so all your posts (to every community) can earn $leo rewards!
Thanks for the reminder. I'll give inLeo a try for some long-form posts. I still enjoy threads!
Threads are cool! We've put a ton of time into improving the long form experience, any kind of feedback is much appreciated!
@anomadsoul I tried creating long-form on inLeo but when I hit publish, I get this:
Everything seems in order, I just can't seem to get my content posted...
Oh damn, can you hit me up on discord pls? Or gimme your username so I can find you so I know exactly what is going on :(
I think it was a hive keychain issue. I noticed keychain wasn't coming up. I tried again later in the day and it worked!
