It has been so long since I have done anything on here.. Apparently nothing of consequence has happened? Which is so not true. John had a birthday, we have had an amazing summer, we had a mini vacation, I had a birthday, school started.. So much, so little time or desire right now. I think I may just upload photos and maybe do a little blurb or something. But, right now, I had to share a funny that happened tonight on the way home from church. Wednesday night services are quite a bit different from Sunday morning. For one,, they are way more chaotic and for two the kids learn a memory verse. Johns verse was the one about hiding Gods word in our hearts (I don't know the reference). He told me the whole verse on the way home and so I started asking him questions about what the verse meant. He told me that if we hide Gods word in our hearts then we won't sin against Him. So I asked how do you hide Gods word in your heart? He said, you put your bible under your shirt right next to your heart so it is hidden! Oh, I couldn't help myself this time, and laughed out loud! My son comes up with some funny things, but this one was one of the best. Of course, I further explained to him that it meant learning and memorizing bible verses and keeping them in our hearts to help us know the right thing to do so we don't win against God.
Later, in the Walmart parking lot, we were talking about the funny (stinky) smell. I told them it was the smell of manure and jacob said it smelled like flash and smitty (my parents dogs). They are 100% outside dogs that live in a kennel. They live in western WA so get "bathed" regularly by the rain. Really, they stink. Long story, but flash is technically on loan to my parents and has just never come back home. Jacob asked why he couldn't come back. He said he thought coco, our German shepherd, needed puppies. I asked why would we need flash? Jake says (with LOTS of eyebrow wiggles and dramatic pauses), you know, so they can be... Husband and wife...? And... Have puppies...!
Seriously, the things my boys come up with sometimes..! They are funny kids and keep me on my toes!
I think babies are on their brain, though, because my brother and sister in law had their first baby today! I am an auntie!! I cannot wait to see him, and hear what his name is. Apparently they have not yet decided. They decided to be fun and not find out what they were having early and, of course, not share any of their name ideas. Talk about party poopers! All that aside, I am sure he his going to be adorable. We will get to see him in the flesh, next weekend. Yay!
