In the Midst of the Valley

In the Midst of the Valley is about being in the midst of so much stuff it's hard to see the sky. Ever feel like that? What we don't realize, sometimes, is that there are incredible treasures to be found in the valley! This blog was started because I beleive that the greatest potential for spiritual growth is in the valley - not on the mountain top. These are lessons God has taught me as I go through the valley season of my life. May He use them to minister to you. Mike

The Name

You're probably wondering about the name "Buggy-Buggy". I don't blame you. Karen and I don't have any children of our own(we can't), but I love children. I love to see them laugh, especially my god-children. When they are sad or it's playtime (it's almost always that for me when I'm with them) I give them "buggies". It's nothing but tickling them and watching them laugh their brains out. Three of my god-children began calling me "Buggy-Buggy" and the name stuck. Go figure.

Isn't just like kids to give us names that seem to stick. Look at grandparents. What do you call your grandparents? Poppi/Nawnee(sp)? Nanny/Big Daddy? Most of these names were given by children who couldn't saya Grandma & Grandpa! (OK, so not every grandparent was named by their grandchildren, but hopefully you get the point.) Who new when I started makeing children laugh that a name like "Buggy-Buggy" would stick? Oh well. . . go figure. It's what they call me and I'll answer to it every time
