What do the Kids say
Katrina
"I missed you acuz you were away," she said. " I don't want you to be gone anymore." I was told that is what she said as I talked to her mom over msn. I visit them regularly I visit so regularly I have had the chance to tuck the kids in on occation. In fact I was over Saturday night. We finished watching hook and I tucked her in. Yet not even a full 48 hours later she misses me. I went to Mexico and I imagine that is what they are saying. I know I miss them, the Kids. Some of the kids even told they don't want me to leave. The funniest part is I miss them the same way. Maybe it's because I love kids so much and am around them a lot so I have learnt this emotion. This emotion though has spilt into my everyday life. I miss people just because they are away. That is love. Missing someone not for any reason but that they are away.

Mrs. Shepard "has the cookie been anywhere I wouldn't want to eat it from"
Josh "Yes"
Mrs. Shepard "Where?"
Josh "Uhm...................The box!"
That was probably the highlight of my day that day. The way he said it was so cute and the funniest part is it was true the cracker was from the box I even gave it to him. But I put it up there not because it was funny. No I put it up there because it made me think just like Katrina. Maybe sometimes we get so used to the box that we don't want stuff from the box. It's like the box is God and well God has given us so much already that when he gives us another thing we wonder maybe where it is coming from. Or sometimes just don't want it because we think we don't need it. Like Pastor Jordan was saying about grace. Sometimes we get so that it's just an insurance policy because if we mess up grace just gets bigger. It's like crashing a car. You crash and if you have insurance you get money for it. But it always cost something. You never know... You just never see it.
Ya I kinda forgot what I really though of this it was something close to this but I left it for a while so it's not what I originally had in mind.
