$138,095

Just when I was starting to feel like my stay-at-home-mom line of work is not worth anything, I stumbled across this.

I'm feeling a lot better about myself right now.

Selective Role Play

Hannah and Daniel both have very vivid imaginations. It's wonderful---except when it goes awry...

Hannah: "Let's pretend. I'll be Jesus, and you can be my disciple."

(I smile while I hear a pause.)

Hannah: "OK, this is our Last Supper. This is my body which is broken for you. Do this in remembrance of me.

(Another pause.)

Hannah: "Bud! Eat it!!!"

(I'm stifling a giggle in the next room.)

Hannah: "OK. This is my blood which is shed for you."

Hannah: "OK, now you can be Jesus, and I'LL GET THE LEATHER WHIP!"

At this point Mommy interjects from the next room to save said second born.

A Win

I just have to brag about Peter for a second.

He got the news yesterday that he won his trial from a few months ago. I know he wouldn't tell you all, so I'm saying it. I'm so proud of him. I'd be proud of him even if he hadn't won, but he's happy, and giving God the glory, and I'm happy for him.
