In Spite of me
But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8

A Calvin and Hobbes Education
We were reviewing for Mikey's(11yo) English lesson today and he was asked to give the definition of a pronoun. His response:
"A noun that's lost it's amateur status?"
Yes, he may not remember anything I teach but he can memorize completely his entire Calvin and Hobbes comic book.

Look! It's a meme!
My very first! Thanks to Meredith over at The Ugly Trunk. I've been looking for a good excuse to write on my blog but it's hard to come up with a good enough reason to break four months of silence. Now I have my excuse!
"8 Random things about me"
8. I can't stand to touch other people's feet or underwear. So I don't do well with foot rubs or folding other people's clothes.
7. I've painted four rooms in the past week and am about to paint my fifth.
6. I have a knack for trying to get a different color but ending up with basically the same shade just in a different name!
5. I switched my major in college from education to accounting after spending a week in a classroom with 25 kindergartners. It felt like a scene from "Lockdown"(prison movie with Stallone).
4. I now homeschool my six kids and absolutely LOVE it! Who knew?!
3. It's 2:19pm and I am still in pajamas. (See #7. I'm wiped out.)
2. I asked my 17yo to help me with this list and she laughed because she couldn't think of anything positive. Hey!
1. My 8yo chimed in and said, "Your the best mom that ever lived!" (God bless her!)

Rocky Balboa- The Next Christian Film?
Here's another interesting post from Phil Vischer.
I know I've posted a link to him before. I just really have some respect for a guy that can make vegetables funny and entertaining for the whole family.

Beta blogger stinks and Walmart
I have been trying to leave comments on a couple of blogs and beta.blogger won't let me. UGH!
Anyway, Dave, I'm so excited you have a blog! Great post, BTW. Give Clay and the girls a hug from us. We'll miss you guys. Thanks to all you other guys who've posted. I'm really enjoying reading your blogs.
As a follow-up to my Walmart post, I found this article. You still won't find me anywhere near a Walmart or other large retail store the day after Thanksgiving. Not even if you double-dog dare me!




Bubba Luke!
