ROFLOL!

I was talking with my friend, Bobbi today, and she said that my post about Kiddo's salsa garden really made her laugh. That made me think of another time he came out with a really good one. My son is a plethera of comedic on-liners.

Ok, so one night we were sitting at the table eating dinner, talking about what had gone on during our day (no, not with our mouths full....wait a minute.....uh, yes, they probably were). Bean was talking about something that was of interest to her and in a nice, soft, quiet manner, when all of a sudden she started raising her voice and was getting very annoyed. Kiddo, without missing a beat looks up at her and blurts out.....................................................


"SOMEONE'S HAVING MOOD SWINGS!"


Kids............you gotta love em'!

Please Pray With Me


Please pray for my ex-brother in-law, WL. My sister called and they had to have the Fire Department do an emergency break-in at his home where they found him on the floor unconscious. He is diabetic and has had a couple of strokes before this. She has called him everyday, but there has been no answer. The last time she spoke with him was on Easter Sunday. At this point they don't know how long he had been that way.

Please pray for WL, his family, and my sister and her family. May God give them the strength and the peace they need to get through this difficult time. I pray that God will lay his healing hand upon WL. We know that whatever the outcome, it is God's will and he will be glorified and uplifted!

Thankful Thursday

As most of you know, I am a lover of music and sometimes the words to a song can express far better than I, what I want or need to say.

"THANK YOU" by The Katinas is a beautiful song, thanking our Precious Heavenly Father for the things that He has done for us.

Please take a moment not only to listen to the wonderful words and beautiful music of this song, but the actual video itself.

Your heart will be touched............I know mine was!



THANK YOU

Just a little while longer I wanna pray

Can't get You off my mind so I came to say

Thank You Lord, just for loving me, alright

Many times I do forget

Every need that You have met

Oh thank You Lord, I know You're showing me

You are there when I am down and out

You're holding me, Your love is so amazing

Oh it changed me



Here I am with all I have

Raise my hands to worship You

I wanna say thank you, oh thank you

For everything, for who You are

You cover me, You touch my heart

I wanna say thank you


I could have died in my sin but You saved me

Didn't have any hope at all

You gave me peace divine, strength to carry on

I should have been the one to pay

But instead You took my place

Amazing grace, it's more than just a song

Even though I don't deserve Your love for me

You look beyond my fault and You showed me mercy


Here I am with all I have

Raise my hands to worship You

I wanna say thank you, oh thank you

For everything, for who You are

You cover me, You touch my heart

I wanna say thank you


I wanna say thank you for the sun

Lord we thank you for the rain

Thank you for the love You gave

THANK YOU, JESUS

How Does Your Salsa Grow?

Last month, Kiddo got a salsa garden for his birthday. It came with all you need to get started from the tray to the soil to the six packs of cilantro, onions, tomatoes, jalapenos, parsley, and cayenne pepper seeds. It had everything but the water, but not to worry.....we have a well!



Kiddo started out by filling each cell of the tray with potting soil.






Bean then helped Kiddo plant the seeds. Apparently this job proved to be a little more difficult than they had anticipated so they had to get some help from.........................................



SUPER KITTY!!




Each day since Kiddo planted his garden a few weeks ago, he has written down any changes in the seedlings development, how many of each kind have sprouted, and when they have been watered.


DH took the tray from the window and called Kiddo into the kitchen. "Look at your garden and tell me what you see?" said DH.



"I see jalapenos, onions, tomatoes, and cilantro, but no cheyenne peppers or parsley. Hey, where's the salsa?" said Kiddo.


"What do you mean, where's the salsa?" DH replied.


Kiddo said, "I don't see any salsa!"


Trying to hold back the uncontrollable laughter, DH said, "Kiddo, salsa itself doesn't grow in the garden. You first have to grow all these vegetables, then chop them up, add seasonings and then blend them together. That's salsa. Were you looking for little jars of salsa growing in this tray?"


With a smirk on his face, Kiddo replied, "Ummm....Maybe!"


Blessings~
