HAS SPRING SPRUNG?

It is pouring rain and 69 degrees, and the 11th of January.  What's up with this spring type weather?  I watched the world news last night and strange things are happening all over the globe.  Hmmm...

My pain is soooo much better this morning and again, I thank Him.  I didn't sleep very much last night and I wonder now if it is because I have had to taken pain pills and my body has gotten used to them.  Well, Ms. Body, get ready to sleep again without them!  Losing some sleep is worth not having all that horrible pain.

Tonight we get to go see Aryn play basketball.  The game is at their school and they play Notre Dame High School and will probably get beat, but we just enjoy seeing her play, win or lose.  She gives it her all and that is what matters.  She has 491 points in high school so far, and we are hoping to see 500 tonight!

No big plans this weekend, other than I get to go to church on Sunday and I am so looking forward to that. My church family has been so good to pray with me, be concerned about me, but that is just the way they are, and I am so happy to be a part of that love.

Please forgive some of the language and examples, but coming from children, it is hilarious........

Writing About the Ocean.

1) - This is a picture of an octopus. It has eight testicles.(Kelly, age 6)
2) - Oysters' balls are called pearls. (Jerry, age 6)
3) - If you are surrounded by ocean, you are an island. If you don't have ocean all round you, you are incontinent.(Mike, age 7)

6) - My uncle goes out in his boat with 2 other men and a woman and pots and comes back with crabs. (Millie, age 6)
7) - When ships had sails, they used to use the trade winds to cross the ocean. Sometimes when
the wind didn't blow the sailors would whistle to
make the wind come. My brother said they would have been better off eating beans. (William, age 7)

Like, really? (Helen, age 6)

about the ocean. My baby brother is always crying, my Dad keeps yelling at my Mom, and my big sister has just got pregnant, so I can't think what to write. (Amy, age 6)
10) - Some fish are dangerous. Jellyfish can sting. Electric eels can give you a shock. They have to live in caves under the sea where I think they have to plug themselves in to chargers. (Christopher, age 7)
11) - When you go swimming in the ocean, it is very cold, and it makes my willy small. (Kevin, age 6)

ass. (Julie, age 7)

fish don't drown I don't know. (Bobby, age 6)
15) - My dad was a sailor on the ocean. He knows all about the ocean. What he doesn't know is why he quit
being a sailor and married my mom. (James, age 7)
