A New Pet

Daddy gave permission for Mark to get a guinea pig. GREAT!! That's what Mark and I both said, but in two different keys. Mark's was a high C-----greaAAT! Mine was a G minor great! Just what I want, my house to smell like a pet store. But since I am such a wonderful, giving mother (choke, choke) we are having a blast with this "mouse". I want it in the laundry room, but Mark insists that it park next to his bed so he can check on it in the night and reach over and pet him if he needs comfort. Morgan is thrilled! She loves the DVD Stuart Little and is delighted to have him in her house! Morgan persists on throwing wood shavings at the poor thing as she giggles and laughs at it, as it's running around the cage. I think he does like her, because she loves to feed him lettuce and carrots and anything else that is of interest :)

Jerusalem dinner

These are photos of Mark in his Sunday School class. They took a trip to Naomi's house for dinner. Sis. Beverly Eguia had bread, grapes , olives, figs and "wine" for them to taste. Quite different than pizza and chicken nuggets.

"Train Up a Child....."

I wrote about Melissa cooking Mother's Day dinner for me---well, this is where it started. I had to remind myself when I was tempted to tell Morgan, "Stay out of the flour!" Melissa has been making cinnamon rolls and selling them as a fund raiser for Youth Camp. Morgan had been asking to help and I really, Really, REALLY didn't feel like cleaning up a mess. If I want a Mother's Day dinner come 8 years from now when Melissa is gone from home, I am going to have to train Morgan. Yes it was a huge mess, but Morgan had a ball, literally, of dough!
