Bakers dozen!

I believe I am to have to new cooks in the kitchen. Jesse loves to mix, pour, flip, crush, etc And Addie demonstrated her kitichen ability by emptying all the cinnamon sugar into the cake pans to dust them before we bake a cake - unfortunitally the recipe didn't call for an entire container of cinnamon sugar to be emptied into the cake pans - and then into the floor- but she is good at improvising

I told Jesse it looked like it had rained last night and if it were still raining we wouldn't get to go out and work in the garden as we planned. His response? "It didn't rain, Grandma. The birdies peed!"


Jesse loves puzzles and was putting one together this morning that his father had worked as a child. It is of a bird and 2 fledglings in a nest. I asked him what the puzzle was and he told me a mother and her babies. When I asked how he knew it was a mommy bird and not a daddy bird he looked the piece over front and back and replied, " Its a mommy. See its wood!"


Jesse lied to me this morning and we discussed, disciplined and hopefully learned something. He later came to me again and told me he was sorry. He said his heart was broken and wouldn't go back together.

    I am so very pleased to see you are recording these. Not only for your own heart, but down the road Jess will hear them over and over and it will create another avenue of "belonging" which is so very important to children. I so wish mothers would take the time to record and not just to enjoy for the moment. I know, I KNOW, how busy they are, but. . . they will be sor r r r y!

    The witch doctors (nyanga) use all sorts of sorry pieces of this world for "muti" in their work of witchcraft. Their entire livelihood depends on a continuance of evil spirits causing all the troubles around, whether health, hatred, etc.
    Dave uses the Waldron's workbook on History and Geography of the Bible as a jump-off for a more detailed study and including material specific to a preacher's qualifications and responsibilities. Too many times Christians jump to "support" men newly converted or men without knowledge of the Scriptures just because there is a crying need. The damage can be horrific. Better to spend time and money to teach these men first!
    Yes, my housekeeper (my right hand!) is a Christian and also helps me with translation work, either orally or written. Nice!

My Father in law, George, is back in the hospital. Looks like they should never have let him go the first time. He has some very contagious digestive issues and has had them for over a month! He is VERY weak and prayers would be greatly appreciated.

marriage

at 02/20/10 10:15AM
When asked about marriage Jesse replied,"I'm going to marry Addie!"
When asked if he knew what marriage is. His answer, "I know what it is Dama! It is getting your picture made with someone!" (My guess is there are a LOT of polygamist reading this! :)

Ah, if marriage was only as simple as getting your picture made with someone!
