California officials: no fireworks on 4th of July

Californians:

Husbands need the respect and support of their wives. This works both ways, as the wife needs to feel the support of her husband. But respect is huge for a man. A God-fearing husband knows the Lord has placed him in a position of leadership. It can be overwhelming for them sometimes because of the feeling of being squeezed from the pressures of life. The last thing a husband needs to feel is distance or distrust from his wife. Her spousal support may be the only thing that is preventing him from giving up.

Family on the Farm, by John Newton Howitt

But he who dares not grasp the thorn, should never crave the rose

And upon this Rock...
I will build My Church.
And the gates of Hell
Shall not prevail against it

Ordinary moments make for an extraordinary childhood
