Earth Day/GoodFriday

"My thoughts on this Earth Day, kept returning to a hill in Jerusalem, where our Savior was raised up on a cross, and the earth groaned and broke into seams at the death of its Creator."

Too Funny

We were out of town the day the school counselor gathered the 5th graders and their parents for the annual showing of "Growing Up." This is the maturation movie shown has part of the school district's health curriculum (hygiene, body changes, etc.)

Sooo, we borrowed it from the school and sat down to watch it with our 11-year old after having put the other kids to bed. As we start the movie, Josh says to us, "Do you think they have this available in blu-ray?"

Dear Congress

Dear Congress,

Last year I mismanaged my funds and this year my family and I cannot decide on a budget. Until we come to a unified decision that fits all of our needs and interests, we will have to shut down our checkbook and will no longer be able to pay our taxes. I'm sure you'll understand. Thank you for setting an example we can follow.

Some days...

The Mad Hatter: "Have I gone mad?"

Alice: "I'm afraid so. You're entirely bonkers. But I'll tell you a secret. All the best people are."

Annalee: "Thanks, Alice. I needed a little validation today."
