I was mentioning to Charlene that I am enjoying this phase of life. The kids are old enough to be more fun than demanding, yet they’re not old enough to be trouble. I am still young enough to [sleep through the night](http://www.jesuscreed.org/?p=726&ref=dashhouse.com), and I am getting more comfortable in my own skin, and emerging (sorry) from a period of restlessness. There are lots of good things happening, I have lots of good friends, and I sense God at work. But I am also feeling mortal. [Jordon is sick](http://www.jordoncooper.com/2006/01/ugh.html?ref=dashhouse.com). [My sister-in-law’s mother just died](https://www.dashhouse.com/darryl/2006/01/passing%5Fof%5Fjoy.htm). [My friend’s 20-year-old son just died](https://www.dashhouse.com/darryl/2006/01/pray%5Ffor%5Fmy%5Ffri.htm) – went to the funeral home today, and it broke my heart. And while I wouldn’t want to go back, I sense that life is passing by faster than I’d like. “Teach us to number our days, that we may gain a heart of wisdom” (Psalm 90:12). I’m learning to number, and learning not to take any of them for granted.
