Sunday Scroll

"Then Jesus came to them and said, 'All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore, go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age."
~Matthew 28:18-20

Pool Time!



There has hardly been much of a winter in the state we live in. Springtime days have felt more like summer. I believe our thermometer read 89 degrees today. It was hot...and we let the kids play in their new pool! Needless to say, they enjoyed it. (Perhaps that is an extreme understatement!)

They bought this pool with their own money. After much deliberation, it was decided that all three kids agreed to put their money together for one big grand prize. I called it deliberation because it took much persuasion on behalf of BA to talk CJ out of buying a fig tree. A fig tree would not leave enough money for buying the pool too. BA told him. "Now CJ, you know it is much funner to swim in a pool than to sit around and eat figs." At any rate, CJ decided he would plant watermelon trees instead of fig trees. (Hilarious, huh?!) CJ is our little farmer. The last money he earned he bought and planted two blueberry trees for the yard- all ideas of his very own! Anyway, here is the final rundown...

1 pool, 1 pack of watermelon seeds, and a swimsuit for EE- $35
Afternoon of kids squealing with delight- priceless :)

Conversations

Lately, all three of our kids have been saying all sorts of hilarious things. Here are some of my favorite quotes...

From BA...
"Mom, when the baby comes out, they will have to cut the Biblical cord."

From CJ...
At the dinner table after discussing some of the recent storms..."Yeah, and after the storm, sometimes a tormado comes."

From EE...
On the way home from T-town, EE tells me about 100 times, "Momma, I stuck" while pulling at her car seat. (She was telling me she couldn't get out...which is generally the purpose of being strapped in a car seat!)
