9 Ways to win my heart:

3. Actively participate in the worship service
4. Pay attention to what's important to me, if it is important to you, too, let me know.
5. Love kids
6. Be willing to "sell all you have and bear the cross."
7. Be polite and loving towards your mother

9. Remember that in the end nothing but God will matter and how you have served Him and help others in the goal towards heaven.

6. Make callous jokes about people's ethnicity or culture when you don't really know anything about it.
7. Poke me in the stomach assuming I don't have a problem being touched.

Hey! On my blog I’m offering hand made cross necklaces to my close friends here on pleonast before going out and offering it to the rest of the public. The crosses are made with bent horseshoe nails and wrapped in beautiful colored wire, available in beautiful colors that you can mix and match for school colors, or your indecisiveness! ;) I would appreciate it if you could check it out!
