Will you know me in four days?  yes
Will you know me in five days?  yes

Cu-cumbersome Tux

Brandon recently tried on his tux.  He is in his cousin's wedding. Mom reported he looked tall and handsome. Although he was dying in the itchy material, tight collar, and "stupid cucumber bun,"  Mom thought he was adorable.  I would tend to agree.

Dance Clinic for HOPE

Recently my home town high school dance team sponsored a dance clinic to benefit breast cancer. Football stadium covered in pink--Dancers, cheerleaders, football players and fans---$3,000 raised. Warms my heart.

Food Fright

Today at lunch five-year-old Julia prayed, "Dear Jesus, I hope that you can bless this food ..."
 It makes Mom wonder how bad the food looked if Julia wasn't even sure Jesus could bless it.

Allergic "Reaction"

My wonderful friend Aiden is eight years old.  Although he has some pretty severe allergic reactions to cats, dogs and mold, he recently had an allergic "reaction" of a different kind.

Aiden's mom was in the yard chatting with a neighbor while the kids played.  The adults were talking about the havoc moles were causing in their yards.  Upon hearing this Aiden shrieked, "MOLES!  WHAT?! I can't be here!  I got to get inside!"

While his diligence in taking a proactive approach to his health is to be commended, as long as the moles weren't moldy, I think he was fine. 

Have I mentioned I LOVE THAT BOY!

Marbles

Mrs.Norris and her kindergarten class were looking at a book of pictures starting with "m". One of the pictures was children playing marbles.

Mrs. N:  "You probably don't know this game. I played this a long time ago when I was a little girl. It's a game called marbles.  (She then explained the game to her class.)

Student: "Do you still play?"

Mrs. Norris:  "No.  Not anymore."

Student:  "Why did you lose all your marbles?"

 Little does she know that's how A LOT of teachers feel after the first week of school.

Mom:   HEAVY sigh.
