Chips and Jesus What?

I was sitting eating my chips at Barberitos with some friends and their five year old sat by me. While she was waiting for her food. I asked her if she wanted some of my chips... Me expecting her to jump at the idea but instead I got this response.
"No" said the little girl.
"Why do you not want any chips?" asked I.
Her reply was," Well I do not deserve your chips,because they are not mine ."
" You can have my chip because I can share."
This incident got me thinking on how Jesus is a lot like those chips: That God shared his ONLY Son to save us, or like the chip fills us up, Jesus fills our empty heart, and that we try to fill up with earthy things, but Jesus is the only way

Footprints

So my Dad and I come home from the Nutcracker rehearsal. I walk in the Kitchen and it looks like someone sprinkled water on the floor. There it was footprints and as you know I have a sightly wild imagination. I ran outside "Dad there are footprints in our kitchen....As you probably know stuff like this was going through my head " Oh my goodness there are X murders in our house. My dad cool and calm looks at it goes those are Victoria's footprints he cleans up the mess and when Victoria gets home we find out she used body glitter and it had gotten on the floor!

Are You Self Absorbed?

You are probably wondering why I am not posting about my trip. The reason is because my mom will put it in better words than I will.

I do want to write about self absorption. Here is a test to find out if you are SELF ABSORBED.
1. Does your status up date on facebook say "Just turned the AC on"?
2. Do you twitter "Am stopping at a red light"?
3. Do you write songs about when you made a cake out of a box and it burned?

You are probably thinking about some person right about now....If you cannot think of someone you might be a self absorbed person!

Happy Thanksgiving

Fish

Fish

Once upon a time there there was a fish named Buddy. He was a very small fish won at VBS. The owner of the fish was not a very good owner, (I was not the owner thank you very much) so the mother ended up taking care of the fish. Once when the mother was finishing up cleaning the tank/bowl, she went to put the fish back in the bowl, but the fish's dorsal fin got caught in the net. The mother, after trying to shake the fish off in the water, (you should have seen the look of terror on that fish's face) had to push the net against the the bowl, get a spoon and pry the fish's dorsal fin out of the net(in the process of freeing him, part of the dorsal fin came off). That is one of many funny stories about our fishes with nine lives (more to come later).

The Best Dad Ever

So my Mom, Victoria, and I arrived in GAP, an hour or so later we left GAP. I bought a white top with a flower and a floral top. I was so pumped about the tops because this floral top is the first floral top in my whole wardrobe. As us girls know, when we buy clothing we hope every single person we meet will compliment us.To our dismay it usually doesn't happen. Bummer. So I wore the floral top the next day. I got one compliment from Aunt Cynthia. Stink only one compliment. But the next time I wore it I got the best, most memorable compliment I will ever get. It was from my Dad.

So I entered the kitchen and Daddy looks at my shirt and says, "Hannah is that a new shirt?”

I replied, "Yes sir."

"Well Hannah, that is a very pretty shirt" my wonderful Father comments. He kind of squints at the sleeves and says, "It has a cool hem on it too."

I love you Dad. I miss you. Have fun in Baltimore. You are the best dad in the world, and I mean it.
